Cleaning up Stanthorpe Road and adding a few planters!

I've been meaning to post some pictures of what some residents did recently on Stanthorpe Road.

A few weeks ago, on a rather wet Saturday, residents from the Stanthorpe Triangle got together with a little help from the Council to build some planters and paint the area where Gleneldon Mews meet Stanthorpe Road.

This is the area to the side of The Hideaway and Streatham Business Centre.

There was a very good turnout from local residents with around a dozen people taking part.


The planters were made out of old decking and other bits of wood. Fortunately one of the residents was a joiner, which proved particularly useful.


The planters were then painted and soil was then put in...


Flowers were planted...


And the end result was pretty good!


We also used old paint which had been donated to paint a couple of the walls in the area.


It was great to see so many local people coming together to make the area better.
