The River Lea runs from Hertfordshire down to the Thames in East London. Once a busy commercial waterway, it is now a nature reserve and leisure area. From the grand site of the 2012 Olympic Games it passes industrial estates, sports centres, new build homes and council estates. Escape from the city; the reinvention of social spaces; the attraction of water; the meeting of different cultures; the persistence of nature. Adventures in Lea Valley collects a decade's worth of photographs from Davaid Campany and Polly Braden, telling the story of this changing land.

Book Description

The third in the East London Photo Stories series by Hoxton Mini Press. Each title in this series will be the same size and numbered, forming a collectable set. This is a photo documentary project that looks at the changing face of East London. Hackney, though crime-ridden, poor and dilapidated, is also now London's trendiest neighbourhood, and was home to the 2012 Olympics. Zed Nelson, a renowned photojournalist who both resides and grew up in the area, looks at some of the bizarre, often painful, contradictions caused by this rapid gentrification.
