Memorial Park
The following are examples of the type of work we are involved in at the Park:-
- We are members of the Park Steering Group
- We assist Land Services in maintaining the park.
- Planting and replacing of trees and shrubs
- Pruning, watering and generally tidying up
- We have worked with Land Services to gain a Green Flag Award for the last 3 years
- We have been involved in the purchase of benches for the park
- Memorial cherry trees
- We have helped identify diseased trees within the park which have been removed by the Council.
- We have purchased new non-native trees to replace the trees which have been removed.
- Bridge of Allan Times committee kindly gave us a large donation which enabled us to purchase a number of trees.
- Unfortunately due to budget cuts Stirling Council decided that they could no longer plant bedding plants in the beds and they would be grassed over. In view of this Friends of Bridge of Allan purchased and planted 16 cherry trees in the area of the beds.
