Forest Lodge finally Demolished



The last remaining building of the old Forest lodge School building was demolished this week to make way for the new £2 million Community & Activity Centre in Lodge Lane. The building had been used by the Forest Lodge Activity Centre (F.L.A.C) for the last 15 plus years and found itself in the middle of the new car park.

As a former pupil of the old school, on one hand it was a sad day to see the last remains of the school disappear, however i am looking forward to seeing the new building open to the community, which will be a wonderful resource for both young and old.

The new centre is well under way, with the roof now on and all of the services inside, such as heating, electrics, plumbing etc now being installed, hopefully the centre will be ready by the end of the summer.

I have been very proud to have been involved with this building project from the begining, i have meet with Council Officers and representatives of FLAC for the last five years tha i have been your Councillor in "Havering Park" ward and i am looking forward to the grand opening later in the year.
