The area around the River Lea was once a thriving industrial area and hub of waterbourne freight traffic. After years of neglect and decay the Lower Lea Project has, with regeneration funding, worked to improve the environment for all. However this area will undergo major changes as the main site of the 2012 Olympics. |
