Stratford Park

The Society of Model Engineers runs a miniature train each 4th Sunday of the month in Stratford Park during the summer months. Debbie was invited to the 1st running of the train this June, as well as getting a ride on the train, Debbie also went to see the tree that fell across the railway during December.

Concerns have been raised over the safety of the tree and whether it would cause a flood risk over the Painswick Brook. Discussions with the District Council had stalled and Debbie advised that the best method of getting a straight answer was to put questions to the Leader of the Council, that was done tonight where a Chalford resident sought clarification as to the safety and the likelihood of flooding of the tree trunk.
