Title: Stapleton Road Community Garden Launch Event (26/04/2008)
Post by: Lee on April 12, 2008, 22:16:56
The Stapleton Road locals have signed a 3-year lease deal with Network Rail for the derelict land next to the station, including the former trackbed and platform faces. They are currently turning this area into a community garden, and will be holding a launch event on Saturday 26 April 2008. Here are some photos, taken on 11/04/2008 :

Should look great when its finished, but one would assume that it will have to go if four tracking between Bristol-Filton Abbey Wood ever gets the go-ahead.
