A Good Deed clearing Bad Weeds
2 GoodGymers made their way to help the Compton Terrace Gardens in Islington.
- Saturday, 1st of April 2023
- Led by Simon Fitzmaurice
The green tranquillity of Compton Terrace Gardens, created in 1823, stretches nearly seventy metres along Upper Street, just south of Highbury Corner - a haven to walk through or sit in for both residents and passers-by.
After Highbury Fields ParkRun, and coffee at the handy Benita cafe, Alison and myself joined the Gardens' monthly gardening morning. We picked up huge numbers of small branches that had fallen from trees in recent stormy weather, and removed some large, invasive weeds.
Having fought our way through weeds and branches, we then got stuck in the crowds heading for the Arsenal stadium.
