CRUMLIN GLEN - the clearing up campaign
Crumlin Glen in County Antrim is an area of mixed woodland
including the Crumlin River and waterfall. The area has
been blighted with litter and has become a night-time gathering
place for local young people. To see the extent of the litter
left view the last few pictures in the gallery.
The plan is to rejuvenate the worst areas of the car park
and adjacent areas. The Crumlin Together Group hope to involve
the young people who use the park in the evenings and give
them a sense of ownership of the park.
Plans for the site include pruning and replanting, installation
of bird and bat boxes on the trees beside the river, removing
graffiti and a general tidy up of Cockle House.
The river is home to the 'Dollaghna' - the native species
of brown trout.
CRUMLIN GLEN ACTIVITIES/PARTICIPATION
Friday 6th June. The day kicked off at 9.30am and ran until
5pm. The main activities included the creation of a butterfly
garden with the help of CVNI and local community volunteers.
Litter was removed with the support of DCAL, Antrim Borough
Council and more local volunteers.
