Cassland Road Gardens to be renamed as part of borough-wide review

July 23, 2020

Hackney Council yesterday revealed that Cassland Road Gardens, named after 18th-century slave trader John Cass, is to get a new moniker chosen by local residents.

The action is part of the Town Hall’s review into the renaming of landmarks and public spaces, announced in June in the wake of global anti-racism protests and the toppling of Edward Colston’s statue in Bristol.
