There is only one Ridley Road. Ridley Road is a site of exceptional local cultural significance and heritage.
Ridley Road is the embodiment of Hackney’s diversity and in particular it is essential to the London Afro-Caribbean community. Any new investment must be in this community’s interests.
Ridley Road is more than just its street market. Ridley Road encompasses the shops down both sides of the street, the Ridley Road Shopping Village and the stores on St. Marks Rise.
A threat to one is a threat to all.
Ridley Road is a historic centre for music, art and culture. The affordable artists’ studio space in the Shopping Village continues this tradition and needs to be protected.
Ridley Road Shopping Village is recognised by Hackney Council as an Asset of Community Value. We believe this recognition should extend to the whole of Ridley Road.
