PRSC received three telephone calls from concerned residents around 9am this morning (March 1oth), informing us that the wooden flowers that had been made by Jamie Gillman and placed at the bottom of Stokes Croft and at the end of Dighton Street were being loaded into a van by Council Contractors.
As the days lengthen, the demand for sites to paint increases. Stokes Croft’s growing reputation for Artistic Excellence in its public spaces means that people are queuing to paint here.

After five days of cut and thrust between Opecprime Development Ltd., the owners and potential developers of the Westmoreland House site, and Bristol City Council, Stokes Croft must wait six weeks for the decision of Government Inspector, Elizabeth Fieldhouse.

Saturday Feb. 27, 1010.
The Westmoreland House Public Inquiry started at 10am on Thursday 25th Feb.
After two days of sitting, it will recommence on Tuesday at 9.30am, when the views of the local Community will be heard.
Despite the gloom that engulfs the UK economy, Stokes Croft continues to defy the recession. The resurgent Cultural Quarter contines to see businesses opening, and established buildings are repainting their shop fronts.
A Public Inquiry will take place on 25th February, commencing at 10am at the Council House where the developers, Opecprime Development will attempt to gain planning permission for an intensive residential development of the Carriageworks/ Westmoreland House.
