Garden Suburb Revived
Hackney’s diversity is illustrated through its multicultural population, history and geography. Hackney stretches from tranquil bird sanctuaries and reservoirs in the north through fine Georgian and Victorian terraces to the Olympic Lea Valley in the east and trendy Shoreditch to the south.
Just outside the City walls, Hackney was once renowned for its gardens, non-conformism and entertainment.
Sightseeing in Hackney is to sense a regeneration of one of London’s oldest, edgiest and most diverse quarters.
