Clapton Station heritage restoration
The centrepiece of the project was the revival of the building on platform 1, which has been closed to the public since the 1980s and had fallen into severe disrepair, with structural damage, water ingress and accumulated waste. Now fully restored, the building houses a waiting room, viewing gallery, accessible toilet and employee facilities.
Amongst the waste, the team unearthed remnants of Victorian furniture, including three heavily damaged benches. While one bench was beyond repair, two have been returned to their former glory after meticulous restoration and now sit proudly in the waiting room for customers to enjoy. This room also includes fully functional vintage weighing scales to add an authentic period touch.
