Garnett Road


Across Ashworth Road from Chain Bar Lane, where one row of houses remains, is Garnett Road where all the houses have been demolished. Only the monkey puzzle tree remains.

Already the weeds are growing over the footpaths.

It's partly sad, and partly happy... the feeling of abandoment, but nature taking over and making the lane look interesting.

I like how mother natures reclaims, but these kind of area just sadden me. No thought goes into what to to with them. Demolish, abandon, wait for Tescos.

Some would call it progress, I think it is a little sad.

What will it eventually be used for? Land is a very valuable commodity!
