That's sad news! A really long closure too

The drop-in session on Wednesday gives the opportunity to ask questions of Thames Water e.g. why does it need to be closed for 13 months (probably a good practical reason?).

Location: The Coal House Café 226 Lordship Road, Stoke Newington N16 5HQ

Date: 27 November 2024

Time: 3pm – 7:00pm 

Thanks for posting but Woodberry Wetlands is not closing. Half the circuit path will be closed, that's all. "We'll be closing the reservoir walkway between the Coal House Cafe and the New River Path between January 2025 and February 2026. Don't worry - the Coal House Cafe will remain open while we work".

[And the rest of the walkway - about half the total perimeter circuit - will remain open from what I read].

It's actually most of the reservoir circuit that wil be shut - the West side is outside of the reserve itself. and if the current state of the New Rievr works is anything to go by, it won't be pretty...

It's regular haunt of mine, for it's peaceful and beautiful landscape - I will miss it.

Visitor numbers will doubtless be affected, so i hope the Coal House is getting some financial support.
