Walthamstowe, London - God's Own Junk Yard (2)

God’s Own Junkyard

Unit 12

Ravenswood Industrial Estate

Shernhall Street

LONDON E17 9HQ

 

This quirky place was shown to me by my Daughter. Founded by Chris Bracey who in his time created many iconic neon art pieces until his death in 2014. He made many installations for the film industry. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Eyes Wide Shut and Batman are just a few of the notable works but there are many more.

It is a terrific place to wander round, with its pink hues. They have a coffee shop, which does great coffee and a slice.

The industrial estate is also worth a visit, there are a lot of Graffiti, odd signs and notices plus industrial doors. So if that is your thing, I hope you have a good time.

Close by is the William Morris Museum which is at the other end of the cultural spectrum. Both in the same day, what more could you want?
