Support the Friends of the Meadows and Bruntsfield Links Barclay Corner project

Friends of the Meadows and Bruntsfield Links (FoMBL) have gained approval from the City of Edinburgh Council for designing a makeover of the corner of Bruntsfield Links adjoining Glengyle Terrace and Barclay Terrace (Wrights Houses): the Barclay Corner , by Barclay Viewforth Church.  

This is a major entrance to the Millennium Park from Tollcross and Bruntsfield Place, and is much used.  Since finance for the project cannot be provided by the Council, local support is necessary for our application to WREN (Waste Recycling Environmental), who fund community, conservation and heritage projects.  

If you approve of the idea (for which a Phase 1 design is on our website) please add your name to our on-line petition. 

Friends of the Meadows & Bruntsfield Links AGM: 21 Jun at 7:30pm
