Buckfastleigh Gardens and Picnic Area
Aerial view of the Buckfastleigh Station Site 2006 |
The garden on the extreme left hand side of the photograph
above is being left to the wild life. The gardens are maintained by our
full-time groundsman Chris and his assistant Matt together with the help
of a group of adults with learning disabilities from Reyfields Daycentre
in Newton Abbot.
The photographs below shew recent progress together with
the two main stalwarts.
