Undercliffe Community Wildspace

Back of Sydenham Place

Today we make our first visit to support the local residents group (SYDWIGCRES) take the first steps towards creating a wildlife garden on an overgrown strip of derelict and neglected land. The aim of the SYDWIGCRES Goes Wild project is to turn the area into an oasis of native plant life and an accessible space for local residents, particularly children and young people to enjoy.

Our task over the next few days is to clear the site of overgrowth so the site is exposed and a design can be imagined, clear litter and rubbish that has been dumped, and start to repair a section of dry stone wall.

We will be working with the local residents. The site is uneven and the road can get slippery when wet so please make sure you have good strong footwear.
