Developer grant for Filton community garden contrasts with green space criticism at St Philip’s Marsh
A week of land-use reports shows a developer funding green space in one Bristol-area project while campaigners say another development lacks it.
Filton Voice reported that Filton Community Garden and its annual festival are among four groups to receive a share of a £1,000 grant from the developer behind the Brabazon project [1]. The other recipients include a community kitchen and a community centre in Patchway [1].
The same week, Bristol 24/7 reported that three campaign groups said the St Philip’s Marsh development lacks green space [2]. Bristol 24/7 also reported that a barrister has ruled Turbo Island should not be registered as a town green [3], and that locals gave mixed reactions to scaled-back development plans for St Christopher’s school [4]. Taken together, the reports cover developer funding for a community garden and objections over green space in another Bristol development [1][2].
