I often take my trolley (mobility scooter) for a wander through the Halstead Town Park (as I call it). It is a very fine little urban oasis, classic of the Victorian era but modified and for the most part exceptionally well cared for.
Until now. And especially in the once delightful wild garden. In these last two or three years the desperate shortage of funds and resources is now all too plain to see. I have little hope that Braintree District Council will come to the rescue even if they do get some new funding from a more caring Labour government.
Anyway here are a few images to show the problem, and the potential.
