The story of horticulture is intricately woven into the fabric of the Borough of Broxbourne, with its roots firmly embedded in the local community. The glasshouses that once flourished across the Lea Valley have left a lasting legacy. Lowewood Museum has spoken with people holding vivid memories of the industry, many descending from families who once had owned the nurseries that thrived in the region. The result is a captivating exhibition entitled The Glasshouse Legacy
