John Marley Centre, Scotswood, Newcastle upon Tyne
This lovely art deco building was built in 1936 as a secondary school, closed in 1992 and reopened in 1994 as part of Newcastle college, with local boy Mark Knopfler doing the honours. It was named after Sir John Marley who defended the King's interest in the town during the Civil War and later became Mayor. During the 1644 Siege of Newcastle the Scots, in taking the town for Parliament, threatened to destroy the tower of St. Nicholas Church with cannon-fire to quell resistance. Sir John Marley proceeded to place Scottish prisoners within the structure to save its very existence - and save it he did!

Little oak tree, Scotswood Community Garden, Newcastle upon Tyne
As well as growing lots of veg and fruit the idea of the garden project is to green this area and plant lots of native trees. The little oak tree was settling in well and looked very happy in his own glade
