Jane’s Walk Nottingham led by Simon Middlecote, Architect and resident of Abbey Park, West Bridgford. Jane's Walk around Abbey Park Jane’s Walk is a movement of free, citizen-led walking conversations inspired by Jane Jacobs. Jane’s Walks are organised and led by volunteers around the world. There are many ways to get involved—whether by leading a walk, participating in a walk, or leading the festival in your city. Click Here to go the Jane's Walk Led by Simon Middlecote, a local Architect Let’s get walking! Jane’s Walk Nottingham led by Simon Middlecote, Architect and resident of Abbey Park, West Bridgford. The walk picked up on the theme of “How We Dwell” as we walk through this quietly innovative 1970s housing estate. We considered how housing changed radically in the second half of the 20th Century and yet how some developers and designers kept true to principles of community life, public space, and the creation of opportunities for neighbourliness. We questioned what we can we learn from Abbey Park- from permeable fences to Ladies that Lunge, what is it like to live here? The walk was free, open to all and followed a fully accessible route on public streets. The walk took around 90 minutes including stops to chat about the things we see and to hear from local contributors.

We want our field to grow and become an even more beautiful place to be. Tree Planting Streetwise have now started planting to replace the beautiful Ash Trees that were damaged by dieback. New Acers, Cherries and Red Oak are being planted and will be hopefully gracing our park in years to come. Thankfully, Streetwise has a contractor to water them every 3 weeks from March. However it should ideally be once a week. If you can help in any way to ensure they settle in and become well established, please email us at abbeypark.ng@gmail.com More discussions are underway with a view to planting a possible orchard and even a mini forest so watch this space!

Abbey Circus Air Raid Shelter Walk to Abbey Circus to view the triangle of land which was left to the local residents to enjoy and you will find more than just a grass. For many years the patch of land was off limits until local residents fought for it to be reopened. Today there are access gates, new fencing, planters and, importantly, you will find its WW2 air raid shelter, which is still in existence today. It was earmarked for demolition in 1979, the Cold War drew to a close and the 67 ft shelter (B34TYB) was mothballed but recently has been protected and is now considered to be a site of Special Scientific Interest. A couple of years ago, Chris Reynolds, Professor of Contemporary European History and Memory Studies at Nottingham Trent University took on the project to restore and reopen the shelter. Thanks to him school children now visit to learn about the war effort and the fascinating local history. The general public are also able to visit. Please go to https://ng2shelter.com/about/ to find out more. For more information or to book: Email: information@ng2shelter.com Below you can see a selection of artefacts from inside the shelter.
