Whickham View, Natural Community Garden

Scotswood Natural Community Garden is seen as a haven and a treasure by the residents of Scotswood. The garden consists of areas of meadow, woodland and structured garden space of raised beds of brick and stone with paved pathways running between. There are ponds and streams which are habitats for rare newts, examples of rare wildflowers, fruit trees and modern sculptures. The Crown Green Solar Fountain forms a central focus in the tranquil garden space, which is an oasis in a built up area. LOCAL LIST
