Walthamstow Marshes, is a 36.7 hectare site in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. They remain a relatively untouched refuge for wildlife, crossed only by the railway lines. The marshes are one of the last remaining examples of semi-natural wetland in Greater London. They contain a variety of plant communities typical of a former flood plain location, such as a range of neutral grassland types, sedge marsh, reed swamp, sallow scrub and areas of tall herb vegetation.
