On the 28th August Taunton was the location of a wonderful event – a new country park was opened.  Longrun Meadow is new green space in the heart of Taunton.  The oak barn has already been raised and soon a living green cathedral made of willow will grace the flood plain…..

Here is some wonderful pictures of the day at Longrun Meadow where Taunton Transition Town with the help of all the children, adults and the town cryer created a procession of clay figures leading from the new footbridge into the meadow. It was a celebration of this new green space, and how community can get together and be creative; a real hope for the future.

Thanks to everyone for contributing to this wonderful event.
