new South London climbing wall

| | Comments (1) | TrackBacks (0)

In 2006, there is going to be a new climbing wall in London, in Herne Hill, at the Herne Hill Velodrome, see Streetmap for location. They have a total estimated cost of £6 million for the whole complex. The indoor climbing wall aims to have a central 7.5 metre "mountain feature", bouldering wall and traversing walls.
Last June, Southwark's Planning Committee gave approval to the outline planning application to regenerate Herne Hill Velodrome. This saves the whole site which had been under threat.
See some pictures of the site and drawings of the plans, plus some older pictures of the site from the last century.
This new climbing wall will mean that there is a decent wall in all four corners of London, with the Westway, the Castle and my usual Mile End.
