Fast work… a time lapse film shows the development of the Byker Garden in Newcastle upon Tyne, a Community Spaces flagship project.
Two cameras recorded work on site from January to completion in September.
What had been an unloved and neglected churchyard is now a vibrant community resource at the heart of Byker, with places to sit and enjoy stunning views over the city and the landmark Tyne bridges.
The garden also features a performance amphitheatre and will host a gardening club.
There are more photos on the Community Spaces Flickr page.
Community Spaces is a £57.5 million open grants programme managed by Groundwork UK as an award partner to the Big Lottery Fund’s Changing Spaces initiative.
