Historic House Mill gets restoration ‘green light’ in time for Olympics

E-mail Print

Set on Three Mills Island, The House Mill – a Grade I-listed flour mill of international importance and perched on the edge of the Olympic Park - has been given the green light by the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for a £2.65million* grant. A development grant of £248,000 has been awarded to help the River Lea Tidal Mill Trust progress their plans, which include restoring the mill, its neighbour Miller's House, and creating a self-sustaining and vibrant visitor centre around the history of this industrial gem in the heart of the Thames Gateway.

Walked down Three Mills to the Old Mill House lately on your shopping trip to Tesco's? If you were curious and made it up the tow path to Stratford High Street, you may have been surprised at the closeness and unmistakable landmark of the Olympic Stadium and Park.

The landscape is changing at a phenomal pace as the Olympics drive investments and new developments in the Park and adjacent areas. Anyone taking any time lapse photography out there?

Tesco, Inter Ikea  and Southern Housing: Change is coming!

inter ikea site Bromley By BowTesco have recently won a significant development plan to transform the area adjacent to the A12 by Bromley by Bow tube station and now Ikea Inter have snapped up the long neglected derelict zone in between Stratford High Street and Urban Island.

The final piece of the development jigsaw, North of Three Mills Lane and Stratford High Street adjacent to the A12 south is understood to be going to Southern Housing group to cement the new Tesco community development project.

Do you like the old warehouse feel of Three Mills? Happy to see it transformed? We would love to hear your views.
