It was suggested in 1944 by Sir Patrick Abercrombie that ‘the Valley gives the opportunity for a great piece of regenerative planning…every piece of land welded into a great regional reservation'.
It wasn't until 1961 when the then Major of Hackney Alderman Lou Sherman decided with the support of other local authorities to try this.
After an appraisal from the Civic Trust in 1963 the Lee Valley Regional Park Authority was given the responsibility to deliver this amazing vision that we can all enjoy today.
