Hidden beneath Waterloo station, Leake Street Arches is a disused Eurostar tunnel that's been transformed into a street art haven.
In 2008, street art icon Banksy decided to host an ambitious and punnily named new event, The Cans Festival. His mission: to 'transform a dark, forgotten filth pit into an oasis of beautiful art'.
This 'filth pit' was Leake Street Arches, an old Eurostar road put out of use when, in 2007, St Pancras International replaced Waterloo as the company's London station.
The festival took place over one May bank holiday weekend and saw artists gather from around the globe to create a host of murals and art installations.
Since then the street has become a de facto safe haven for street artists. Everyone and anyone is free show off their skills, and many, many have, transforming the tunnel into a visual wonder and the longest graffiti gallery in the capital.

This is a keyhole arch near the Edge Wave on West Clark Bench, right near a 600-foot cliff. Taken on my second hike out there in May 2015. You can see the Edge Wave through the opening.

plants are growing with various degrees of success. if i don't cause root rot by too much watering the slugs, snails and white fly finish the job! i'm not defeated :)
i've replaced three lavenders, one fern and a couple of other plants. more plants were on the edge of obliteration but have survived, thank goodness!
one of my big upsets was an evergreen clematis named 'avalanche' bought from b & q www.primrose.co.uk/50-90cm-clematis-cartmanii-avalanche-3... and planted next to the back arch. the flowers were absolutely stunning, but once they had finished for a long time nothing happened. i was despondent. i thought i'm messing everything up :( i stopped the watering and waited, waited, waited ... suddenly one day i spotted what looked like a miniscule shoot. it was! i now have five healthy shoots coming off from the leaders :)
i've planted a yellow berried pyracantha to cover the back fence and another for the side fence at the back on the right. it will take some time but they're both healthy, at the moment
rocks, stones, broken crockery and canes surrounding the plants to help prevent pet damage - works to a certain extent :)
i still have a couple of problem shrubs but i've stopped worrying. what will be will be :)
for many years my garden was a shrubbery flic.kr/p/Lhv9ag which i loved. a picket fence covered in an ivy hedge coming down in a storm meant that over time changes had to happen flic.kr/p/2mn2x8a i'll be glad when the trellis is covered in honeysuckle and jasmine. that's the plan ...
