The construction and opening of a new playground normally wouldn’t warrant it’s own blog post.

In January, the building at 18B Gordon Avenue was badly damaged in a fire. The building structure was up for a while, however I didn’t manage to get photos before the Coronavirus restrictions were introduced in March.
