Despite resistance and opposition, Newham Council Cabinet has voted to close Newham City Farm, one of London’s oldest city farms.
The Cabinet has assured Newham residents that the farm area will remain a ‘publicly accessible green space for use by the local community’ and welcome any ideas and suggestions from residents. The regeneration of the area is to be included in the Beckton Parks Masterplan, an initiative looking to the future of Beckton’s green spaces.
