Recordist's notes
People obviously enjoy this green square, particularly on a lovely sunny day. Many gather to chat and pass the time and kids play on swings or kick a football. There are birds too, starlings socialise busily, sparrows flock and a blackbird occasionally sings. It's a very pleasant place to hang out. Lots of interesting plants to see, which have gone slight wild and trees provide welcome shade.
