Woodland Walk

A Fields in Trust plaque has appeared at each end of Woodland Walk in North Tonbridge.  Apparently this area has now become a protected space as part of a nationwide challenge to conserve outdoor recreational spaces in the communty as a permanent living legacy of the Jubilee and the London 2012 Olympics.

I had no idea that this had happened in Tonbridge until I was sent a photograph, and asked if I knew anything about it. So if anyone can fill in the gaps as to what the council have pledged to do with Woodland Walk, we would all love to know.
