Gorton Monastery Car Park
In March 2012 the land adjacent to the Monastery car park Image was a mountain of sand. I was informed then that whilst the monastery wanted to the buy the land for additional car parking it was going to be developed for housing. Passing by today on a bus it appears that the land has been levelled and will indeed be part of an extended car park.
