I love Peace Gardens :-)

I love this Garden not@all boring thanx 4 posting BornA :)

Thanks for all your kind comments:-)

Your welcome Bornagain thanks for showing such a pretty area.

Lovely pics and the garden is very nice

It looks very pleasant and yes, the Birches look antastic. I do like silver birch!!

It's a nice area to walk through. I'm glad some thought has been put into it.

Are we near Walsall here, Bornagain??? It's nice to see community projects doing what they can to cheer up what could otherwise be dull and uninspiring areas, and to make us all think in the process. This really is very nice indeed. Boring? Not at all! It's smashing.
;-)

Thanks for showing us the Peace Garden - it's such a good idea - and involving the community too - that's great!

How could that lovely space be boring!!!...I like the idea of the local history tiles.

Thanks for sharing Bornagain.........It a smashing peaceful spot with such a lot of local interest ....a great idea showing the amazing contrast between a manmade area and the beauty of nature.

Morgana, you're a bunny girl! quite a shock;-) thanks Rkalyan, yes Paul I love them too, the corner house, two gardens down from ours has a lovely one which I 'borrow':-) It was a nice idea Hywel and yes B it comes under Walsall MBC Thanks Spritz I've only recently looked at all the tiles Aa and where Rosie is mentioned in one of the tiles, it's to commemorate the murder of a young girl in B'ham, she came from Aldridge, Her parents started a charity in her name:-)

I rea;lly enjoyed that Bornagain....Thanks very much ...

Enjoyed your photos very much, Bornagain!

Thank you so much for showing us Bornagain. It all look great!

Thanks milky and Uma:-)

Oops missed you out Michaella, we must have been typing at the same time, thanks it certainly lifts the spirit:-)

lovely gardens born.... well planned to ;o))

Thanks for showing the garden to us.

Thanks Sandra and Clarice:-)

Thanks for showing the pictures and offering the descriptions. It seems a lovely area, good for a walk, a lunch time sit and chat, and I would just love to nose through all those tiles to read each one~what a great idea to beautify an area and celebrate the community! Wonderful pictures~ Lisa :)

Thanks Lisa:-)

What a loverly idea a Peace Garden, it makes a lovely area for you to walk through on your way home its great to get the community involved especially the children gives them something to feel proud about. a very worthwhile project and well photographed, thanks Lisa!

Thanks Pansy:-)

Wouldn't it be wonderful if every single town in the world could have a meaningful Peace Circle with a Peace Pole ....

Yes Terry it would

Three cheers for Walsall Council, what a nice place to 'people watch' see the world go by. Very tidy, no litter. My nearest City also does a good job creating such places but they never maintain it and hence it looks disgusting.

Heron, I'm not sure Walsall MBC had much to do with this, although I suppose they donated the land?? Yes I suppose Aldridge is virtually litter free. Sometimes when the bus stop is full of our local Aldridge Comp pupils, I notice most put their litter in the bin provided, does your heart good:-) Hi Terry, meaningful being the operative word:-) hope all is well with you? Giorgio? Thanks again for all your kind comments:-)

Thoroughly enjoyed it..thanks fo sharing..I like the tiles

Thanks Deida, glad you liked it:-)

Very interesting blog, smashing pics, The Rotary do a lot of good dont they? used to love Santa on his sleigh, made Christmas for us and the children.

They used to do that here too Dd, but they only do it in the 'village' shopping square now. We've probably grown too sophisticated now:-( It used to be quite exciting at Christmas time to see the lit up sleigh and hear the Christmas music, I loved it, never mind the children:-))
