Save the Viaduct

STOP the Environment Trust’s demolition of our historic “Pinchin Street Arches – Goodman’s Fields Viaduct’!

If we don’t take action against the Environment Trust you will be living under the shadow of two towers – a 33 storey tower block opposite the Wool House, a 23 storey tower block opposite Wapping Women’s Centre and 6 storey building opposite Hooper Square. Opposite St George’s Estate in Cable Street, the open space under the DLR is threatened with a sea container city.

To protect the viaduct and to conserve this historical structure as well as to protect local people from living in congestion and under the shadow of greedy developers we are asking you to support our campaign.

Become a ‘Friend’ of the “Pinchin Street Arches – Goodman’s Fields Viaduct”. With your help we can protect the viaducts and arches’ industrial history, maintain it as a “site of importance for nature conservation” for everyone to enjoy and as a place where our small local resident businesses and projects can thrive. Add your name and contact details to the “Friends of Pinchin Street Arches – Goodman’s Fields Viaduct”.
