Acton Park building?

I noticed tonight there are wood fences up in Acton Park, behind Acton central bus stop. What's going on there?

Only one corner of the garden has gone and that's for lorry access. The mosaic area is still intact. I spoke to the banksman who was there and he said the house is staying. Access into the park is a bit narrower, but nothing to worry about. It doesn't really get busy there. A few benches have gone on the yard side, so the drinkers and weed smokers will have to move further into the park.

I was so sad to see that they've destroyed the garden, used to love looking at it as I waited for the bus on my morning commute

The worse thing is that they have demolished the water free garden at the front of the rangers house on The Vale. I didn't realise that was part of the plan. But the house itself is staying apparently.

You can but its now a very narrow and congested path where there used to be room for pedestrians, buggies and bikes. There isn't now.

So, you can't walk up through Acton Park from Uxbridge Road to Churchfield Rd? Is that right? That's completely out of order.

Its the new Ark school isn't it?Unfortunately the builders have expanded so far into the park that passers by can't do so - annoying as its my direct route to and from mum in Bryant House. The developers seems to think they can take over great swathes of the park. I didn't realise that was the deal.
