Overview
- Heritage of London Trust has purchased 4 Plaistow Grove in Bromley and plans to restore the house to its early‑1960s state for visitors by late 2027.
- The experience will center on Bowie’s 9‑by‑10‑foot bedroom, with a previously unseen archive used to recreate the interior layout authentically.
- Funding includes a confirmed £500,000 grant from the Jones Day Foundation, with a public fundraising campaign launching this month.
- The site will host creative and skills workshops for young people through the trust’s Proud Places and Proud Prospects programs.
- Announced on Jan. 8, Bowie’s birthday and near the 10th anniversary of his death, the project is reported as supported by his estate and complements recent Bowie heritage efforts in London.
