Community views green future 

Abandoned Council-owned bowling greens are common across the city, including in the heart of Spurtleshire at Powderhall.  

Now, a project to make use of the abandoned Regent Road Bowling Green in Abbeyhill has got under way. This green has truly superb views over Holyrood to Arthur's Seat but is (thankfully) protected from development. At present, at least. 

So, how can a new use be found, while keeping it within the public domain?
