The Museum of Garden Escapes is a new community garden proposed on the site of the former Ferry Inn at Easter Industrial Park beside the tidal Thames. The open mosaic habitat of the linear ‘urban wild’ includes unexpected garden escape plants which the ‘museum’ will interpret alongside the site’s ecology. Proposals also include a Belvedere structure which provides sheltered seating with long views across the river for local workers, and visitors using the Thames path to Rainham Marshes RSPB Reserve.
