Regenerate – Water Works, Barrhead
What’s the vision? This project puts some TLC into the WC. They want to transform a disused sewage works into a quirky garden. Playing on its industrial past, the site will use the huge sewage tanks as giant planters with beautiful displays of Scottish native wild flowers.
Tanks will recreate different environments such as wetland meadows. Young people will work with a retirement club, and there’ll be cycling and walking links, so young and old will work and play together.
Who’s behind it? Barrhead High School nominated this site and will drive the idea forward with the help of ‘Still Game’, a local retired people’s club, along with Green Academy students and support from the local council.
