Cody Dock

We are transforming a derelict dock into a creative quarter with community gardens and footpaths that will open up the Lower Lea River for everyone.

The charity Gasworks Dock Partnership was originally formed to act as the community led vehicle for the regeneration of this forgotten Dock and its transformation into a creative quarter where people can explore their waterways environment and learn more about the area's industrial heritage.
