BEACH LAWN GARDEN POND CLEARANCE
Another big thank you to the volunteers who came to help again at Beach Lawn Garden. We had 15 helpers and we’ve now finished the pond work until next year.
We have been doing these annual clean ups for four years now.
The Friends of Waterloo Seafront Gardens are an active and vibrant voluntary group of local residents interested in restoring and promoting the local sea front gardens and Potter’s Barn Park.
The gardens sit in a conservation area in the seaside town of Waterloo, North Liverpool. A 15 minute train journey from the city centre. There are four distinctive public gardens to enjoy along the seafront:
Marine Garden, Crescent Garden, Adelaide Garden and Beach Lawn.
The gardens are located just a short walk from Crosby marine lake, beach and sand dunes. The world famous Antony Gormley ‘Another Place’ statues stand on the beach.
The Waterloo area hosts a wide range of facilities from hotels, restaurants and bars through to the picturesque Lakeside Adventure Centre offering a variety of watersport activities.
The area is easily accessible by road, rail and bus.
