Vestry House Museum in Walthamstow is being improved to enhance accessibility and sustainability. Plans include a cafe, gardens, workspaces, and a refurbished museum area. The Waltham Forest Council aims to make it a welcoming community destination and improve its local infrastructure role. Environmental upgrades will involve removing gas boilers and installing air-source heat pumps, window glazing, solar PV panels, and improved ventilation systems. The project will also preserve historic building features like original brickwork and wooden floorboards.
"This is an important step in the journey towards Vestry House Museum reopening as an active heritage destination. We know one of the priorities for our residents is to be able to enjoy safer and vibrant neighbourhoods."
