Over 1, local people and park users took part in our public consultations, providing ideas to shape the designs for the park and feedback on the proposals. Planning approval was granted in June and, whilst work to improve the Park has been delayed by the coronavirus pandemic, we are looking to start work on site in late There was terraced housing on the site until it suffered bomb damage during World War II.
The pre-fab housing that replaced it was removed between and , creating the park. The brand new Britannia Leisure Centre is nearly complete. There is a TfL Santander cycle hire docking station in the park. The first 30 minutes are free and after joining the scheme you can cycle all over London. The docking station is next to the play area and joins a number of others in Shoreditch.
The Britannia Leisure Runners meet every Tuesday at 5. In no event will we be liable for any loss or damage including, without limitation, indirect or consequential loss or damage, or any loss or damages whatsoever arising from use or loss of use of data or profits arising out of or in connection with the use of the Hackney Local Offer.
Some providers will be registered and inspected by external agencies, such as Ofsted or the Care Quality Commission. Anyone working with children and young people will be required to have appropriate Disclosure and Barring Service Check the replacement for the Criminal Record Check , safeguarding policies and insurance in place, which they should make available to you on request.

Working within the constraints of a much larger development, and adjacent to the existing leisure centre, which remained operational throughout the construction period, the new school plugs into a new infrastructure network that includes a district heating and shared fire systems. Our fire engineers provided fire safety and evacuation advice. This included designing the building for various complicated evacuation scenarios, such as increased occupancy on polling days and accessibility for wheelchair games in the sports hall.
This allowed us to implement the architectural vision of the project in the safest way possible. Our multidisciplinary team worked closely with the architect to enable the careful integration of services, allowing the floor depth and building height to be minimised. This included using universal column floor beams to reduce structural depth and coordinating long-span trusses over the main hall with key service routes.
After a detailed analysis of options, a steelwork frame with pre-cast planks for the floor was selected. This provided a number of advantages in weight reduction and minimisation of structural depths, enabling the offset column grids along balcony walkways and the large transfers that were needed to the sports hall. This gained the full benefit of the structural elements needed.
We provided two reinforced concrete cores for stability, either side of a movement joint where the building height steps down. The large central atrium in the eastern wing of the building meant the east core had to be offset.
Steel cross-bracing was provided in an architecturally suitable place to resist the torsion resulting from this offset. Following dynamic analysis, we ensured the sports hall met the required performance for both sports and exam use. Beam depths were only increased in areas most likely to be excited and reduced elsewhere to avoid increasing steel tonnage unnecessarily.
This allowed for efficient coordination across all elements of the construction of the new school in close collaboration with the architect and contractors. We also brought a strong integration with the wider regeneration masterplan, which itself was developed by the Buro Happold team. The end result is a landmark school for the young people in this corner of Hackney, which delivers a vibrant, safe and sustainable learning environment for generations to come.
