One Year On
The golf course was for sale for two years, as a golf club, but no one bought it, and it closed down. It is now a year that the golf course has been empty and my blog covers that year to date. There are no physical signs yet of the mixed use development plans outlined by NewmanQuin. The Development Vision was prepared and presented to the local authority as a deliverable and sustainable proposal for the councils Local Plans.
I heard of another golf course which had closed down and the local authority had cemented up the holes to prevent members of the public getting free rounds of golf in. This never happened here and I did see a few practicing. It is all over grown now.
I will fess up and say I did actually fill one of the holes up with soil and plant some wild flowers seeds in there, but as with the rest of my guerilla wild flower planting scheme, nothing grew.
So anyway I have decided to post a handfull of drawings each month now, depicting some aspect of the site.
Here are my January Drawings.
