New entrance to Burgess Park.
Friday 5th February 2010
The new entrance for Burgess park is intended to link up the soon to be redeveloped park and the also soon to be redeveloped Aylesbury Estate. I was taken on a tour of the site on the 14th January by Richard Peckam, so to see how the site has taken shape over the past month was really interesting. The turf has now been laid so the form of the site now is a beautifully undulating green landscape with play equipment and access paths tucked neatly between and amongst the mounds and dips. It was really nice to see some change finally to an area which has been promised redevelopment for a while. It was good to see how a construction site developes and also put a time scale to it. The last time i visited the site the form of the mounds was there but the turf had not been laid, there was a lack of furniture and a fencing the first time round which was present this time. It looks very close to finish now and i really like the finished effect.
Photos i took peering through the fence at the site.
