News on Catford Town Centre

In our last news update we promised that there was more exciting artwork to come and we’re proud to unveil the final piece of street art as part of our outdoor gallery project in conjunction with 6 Arts.

That’s the message anyone walking under the railway bridge by Catford Station will have got in the last few weeks . Local artists and volunteers have been hard at work to create the two great pieces of street art that makes sure that anyone travelling to and from Catford knows s exactly where they are.

Catfordians are full of strong, and sometimes opposing, opinions, but one thing we’re all agreed on is that the underpass by Catford Bridge station was in desperate need of some care and attention. While it provides a less risky alternative than crossing the busy south circular, the area’s widely referenced fragrance and general disrepair meant it was underused.

The artwork is currently still ongoing but next time you are in the area take a look at Catford’s new tunnel of trees as it grows, stretches, and transforms this once run-down underpass.
