Preservation Group
The Hall Green Preservation Group (HGPG) held its most recent meeting at the Library on June 12th where progress made by the four sub-groups was reviewed and there was a general discussion on various aspects of the planning process. Substantial work on early plans of our area has been carried out and a DVD (see the item below) has been produced.
The sub-groups cover Houses (for example, the Hamlets, The Chalet and Tolkien’s former home), Social Establishments (for example the Bull’s Head, the Friends Meeting House and Hall Green Junior School), Gardens, Trees and the Green Environment (for example, the bridges in the Dingles, Moseley Bog and central reservations), and unusual or mixed styles of building (for example, Sarehole Mill, Hall Green’s railway stations and bowling clubs). There are now 48 enthusiastic members of HGPG, which is going from strength to strength.
The next meeting of the preservation group is scheduled for Thursday July 17th at 7-15 p.m. at Hall Green Library meeting room. We hope that Mr Andy Foster, author and architectural expert, will be able to join us at this or a later meeting. Do come along if you would like to take part in our activities.
