Silurian Garden Designs by St. Cuthbert's Primary School

In November, Keep Wales Tidy in partnership with Atlantic Wharf Residents Association (AWRA) and Cardiff Council Parks and Street Cleansing cleared an area of fly tipping on waste ground behind Silurian Place. AWRA have obtained a small grant from Tidy Towns to help develop this site to deter further misuse of this land by bringing together the school, community groups and local residents.

Following a meeting with myself, Bryony Butcher from Keep Wales Tidy's Eco-Schools and St. Cuthberts Primary School, the school spent last week looking at the site to see what they would like to see in this community garden space. Some of their designs are shown in the slideshow below.

Black Horse have already added their support on the ground when we get to that point in time. Although it is easrly days, we are looking to attract community artists into the project to help bring in some of the aspects of the design into mosaics to add further to the final layout of this garden.
