Erosion on Newington Green

Erosion Damage

Over the cold wet winter of 2009-2010 the grass on Newington Green has taken a bit of a battering from people walking and even cycling over the grass, taking a short cut from Matthias Road, across the Green to Newington Green Road.

The grass has been completely worn away in places and looks very bare and moth-eaten!

Please Use the Path

It would be very helpful if people could use the proper path, in order to stop the damage getting worse. Please help and give the grass a chance to re-grow.

More children will soon be playing on the grass again, so cycling on the grass will also put them at risk.

It will only take a couple of seconds longer to use the pathway.
