WORD ON THE STREET
Resident? Visitor? Tourist, troubador or ghost, we’re looking for poems, snippets and short stories that celebrate ( or haunt, or disturb) Buxton’s Spring Gardens
Deadline: 31st January 2023
Send as word doc to: creepingtoad@btinternet.com
Main project information on this blog, here
This post is to share images of Spring Gardens…..old photos a painting and generally though-provoking scenes…where we have dates, they’ll be dated
These images are here to intrigue, provoke, and hopefully inspire! If you live in Buxton, try standing in the same place as the photo and reflect on the changes you can see, feel, imagine....this is a rather random selection. We'll post more streamlined selections over the next few weeks
