Undercliffe Community Garden

back Sydenham Place

We are making good progress to the top end of this site, and welcomed several new volunteers to the team today.

Another section of wall was worked on, thanks to Dennis's preparation of the site earlier in the week. stone steps at the top were started to ease access in the open area where a team continued to sieve through the soil to remove as much rubbish and rubble as possible. We are pretty sure the rubbish continues deep into the mound, maybe down to the base of the wall, so we are not attempting to remove it all, just to create a usable space. 

Again we looked after well by the local residents who are continuing to remove rubbish and have designed a simple garden plan for the area. we will return later in the summer to help progress this site further. 

At lunchtime a few volunteers made a trip to the grand opening of Canal Road Greenway.
