Local councillors Alan, Jill and Hamish are pleased to report that after some considerable time, money has been used by the Council’s public realm funds (outdoor projects) to repair and/or rebuild the numerous old brick piers that support the railings at Carshalton Park along Ashcombe Road in particular as well as The Park. As residents nearby will know, many of the old piers had become very cracked and were potentially unstable, which is why rebuilding and repairs had to be done.  We wish to thank both the Rotary Club of Carshalton Beeches and the Friends of Carshalton Park for all their efforts in respect of these works.

Some temporary (but admittedly ugly) metal fencing around the old piers (that is in fact owned by the Council) has been in place for some time although this should all be removed soon when hopefully all the rebuilds/repairs are completed.
