The City of London Corporation has submitted<br />
a planning application to seek permission to<br />
‘consolidate and stabilise’ Wanstead Park’s<br />
Grade II listed Grotto. A report on the 18thcentury<br />
building states: “The landing stage at<br />
the base of the main structure is in need of<br />
immediate treatment. This area has partially<br />
collapsed on one side, whilst on the other side<br />
it forms part of the support to the base of the<br />
main masonry wall of the remainder of the<br />
structure.” A decision is expected next month.<br />

A petition to save the Redbridge Lane West<br />
allotment site from being used by Cadent<br />
will be debated at a Full Council meeting this<br />
month. “We will be able to present the petition<br />
and then council members will be able to<br />
ask questions and debate it before making<br />
a decision. By the time of the meeting on<br />
23 <strong>September</strong>, it will be six months since the<br />
gas company first told us they wanted to take<br />
over the site, and we are still no clearer about<br />
what exactly it is they want or need to do,” said<br />
plot holder Sally Parker. Visit wnstd.com/rlw<br />
