Social gardening project in a former walled garden off Pixham Lane. For a period in the 1990s the site had seen temporary use as a car park by Friends Provident, while its offices on the other side of the road were being refurbished. The site later fell derelict until taken over by Patchworking who restored it to provide a place for people experiencing difficulties as a result of isolation, bereavement or recovery from either psychological or physical ill-health to take part in gardening activities. Seen here on the day of the official opening on 11 July 2015.
