The 2024 National Open Garden Scheme

Come and enjoy local open gardens on the
19 of May and 23 of June
2024.

This year we have 7 gardens in total, with a new garden this year hosted by Mary at 75 Canonbie Road.
For group openings, you pay one admission price, and you get entry to all the gardens on that day.
This group donates to St Christopher’s Hospice & Marsha Phoenix Trust.

Why Join TLERA???

Let me explain…

  • TLERA scrutinises all planning applications from our estate and opposes any which we think would threaten the green environment of our hill.
    • Our objections are often upheld by the Council.

TLERA is pressing for the exclusion of HGVs from our estate during the construction of the Love + Nature developments in the Horniman Museum and Gardens.

  • Street trees. TLERA has raised funds for 61 street trees on our estate. The trees have been planted, watered by residents
  • Ringmore Rise Green. TLERA was awarded a Greening Fund Grant to improve the Ringmore Rise Green. New trees and bulbs were planted and a notice board for TLERA was installed.
  • Rocombe Crescent Triangle. Grass on the Triangle was left uncut to encourage the growth of wild flowers. Downland flowers such as Birds Foot Trefoil have multiplied and these have attracted Common Blue butterflies and field Grasshoppers have also returned.
  • Horniman Triangle. TLERA members raised the funds for the first of the trees that have been planted on the Horniman Triangle. Our chair helped raise the funds for a further 49 trees, all of which have now been planted.
