Vendor's' Comments -
"We have loved living in Dugar Walk for the past 28 years. There is a great sense of community with regular Sunday Playing Outs, annual fireworks and other activities. We benefit from being surrounded by the allotments and Redland Green Park beyond (without needing to cross a road), which means we live alongside an incredible amount of wildlife for city dwellers. Badgers, foxes, owls, woodpeckers and even the occasional has visited neighbouring gardens.
In springtime, our garden pond abounds with frogs, newts and damsel flies. Sitting beside the pond of a spring evening with a mug of tea in hand, it is easy to forget that you are in the heart of the city."
