We had a great turn out for the Big Dig on Wednesday 25th January,
the FoSJP Gardening Club's first practical session, with 8 volunteers
digging over the bed below the heritage frieze to the west of the Young Play
Area. Many hands made light work, and we finished digging over and levelling
this area in less than 2 hours.
As a result, the scheduled meeting on Friday 27th January, 1-3 pm,
will now be raking not digging, as we need to rake leaves and clear the bank
below Winchester Road in preparation for reinstating the Wildflower area.
So please still come along to the Park on Friday, meet by the decking near
the ParkLife Café,
and if you have them, bring along rakes. As before, wear gardening clothing
and suitable shoes.
Young Play Area
The suppliers have taken away the rope bridge
over the water feature. This is a safety measure; please rest assured
that the rope bridge will be replaced as soon as possible.
If you have any queries regarding the works in St.James' Park,
please contact Actionline on 0800 5191919 or via parks@southampton.gov.uk.
