Green Boxes on the Rec ………

It arrived today.

I knew it must have been on the way because yesterday a team were there in the Rec providing a platform to receive it.

And its purpose is to assist in the upkeep of this small but much loved Recreation Ground, which I have looked out on for 48 years and our kids have played on for a heap of time.

It will be home to all the tools and things the Friends of Beech Road Park need to maintain the open space.

All of which marks it as something to include in a history blog about Chorlton, given that the Rec has been a place to play, relax and meet up since the 1890s
