I was really pleased earlier this year when I was successful in getting the overgrown plant beds replanted on the corner of Upper Tollington Park and Oakfield Road (see previous post). However, a couple a weeks ago it was struck by a vehicle and the wall around the beds was smashed. According to a post on stroudgreen.org a large white van hit the wall and was half in the plant bed.
I contacted the Council at the time to make sure the repairs were done quickly and have not heard back yet. However, when I walked past today I saw there were workmen putting the wall back together (see picture). I know this wall has been hit before – so I hope this isn’t too regular an occurrence.
