The Buzzing Garden is a National Garden Scheme garden within Saltwell Park, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear. Permission to fly and film in the park is required, and was granted by Gateshead Council.
That’s a pretty & calming looking place ….
I haven’t been there for many years - looks lovely.
I remember as a kid they had a jumbo jet you could play in, it was great fun.
@ Kirky It is, but it’s a pity the cold spell hit before I could fly there.
The frost has hit it hard…
@howard78 - that’s well before my time…
That makes a pleasant change. The ones I’ve spoken to aren’t interested unless you grease their palms with cash!
@D0c.Col The whole process was surprisingly fast and painless…!
@mollin I tried once on Staffords Council website. It said to apply using link provided… came up error 404 every time. Dont bother any more!
@D0c.Col Sad, isn’t it?
Years since I’ve been there, that area was all grass and there was a couple of pens with goats in near that bird cage that had fancy birds and hens in, I remember the plane fuselage smelt of oil, I think they used to have the emergency slide deployed from one of the doors
A lady stopped for a chat while I was there, she said pretty much the same thing.
The pets corner is still there…
That’s right. I remember playing on the slide many times.
However this was way back in the 80’s
