We were awarded £25,000 by the Heritage Lottery Fund to celebrate and research the diverse and fascinating heritage of Brueton Park with young people.
Groups used the library, internet and other local resources to determine what the park was used for, who owned it, who lived here, and why both the cultural and natural heritage are important in the area. They interviewed local residents to gain an insight into their experiences and memories of the park.
Participants also took part in the Arts Award and John Muir Conservation Award to gain some recognised accreditation for their hard work.
