So peaceful: Garden from a ‘wasteland’
THERE was sunshine, showers and smiles in Little Venice this week as residents of the Amberley estate celebrated the opening of their new community garden.
Once a forgotten wasteland and magnet for anti-social behaviour, the new space now boasts pergolas, benches
and flower beds.
Linda Heavey, who lives on the estate said: “We are so pleased with this space, it is really lovely. “It’s very quiet and peaceful and a great place to come and sit and relax. The difference it has made is wonderful.”
Mark Hoyland, CityWest Homes chief executive (pictured, centre, with residents), opened the garden.
He said: “We are delighted that we have been able to revitalise this area. “It is great that residents have such a lovely peaceful space to use. “This project is a great example of partnership working and everyone should be very proud of the results.” |
