Update 24 January on the improvement works in Paddington Recreation Ground

Update 24 January on the improvement works in Paddington Recreation Ground

With the exception of some minor planting and pathway repairs the works have been essentially completed. However, due to the earlier heavy rain, followed by the cold frosty period which was followed again by heavy rain, the new planting is in a fragile state. In order to give the plants every chance to thrive we have decided to postpone the opening of the area until mid-February.

* Please note that all dates are inclusive and weather dependant.
