Nature

You're standing in Withywood Park, a long thin strip of green amongst the houses. One winter, one of us saw children build a very successful igloo here. There's often a lot of dogs, skateboards and scooters. The shipping container houses Brave Bold Drama's imaginative play equipment which is brought out from time to time so local children can transform this park with their imaginations.

When writing this final station, we took plants from this park and put them under a microscope. Some of the writers were inspired to write about this extraordinary perspective on apparently ordinary plants.

This station is all about nature.

Thank you for listening to Extraordinary Streets: Withywood. If you enjoyed this, there are more soundwalks by Brave Bold Drama you could enjoy, including one just up the road in Manor Valley Woods, Bishopsworth called The Saxons to the Seventies.

To find our sound walks, head to www.bravebolddrama.co.uk and choose the events page. If you would like to tell us what you thought of this soundwalk, there's a contact page on our website, or you can find us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter as Brave Bold Drama.

This soundwalk was funded by Arts Council England, and was launched in May 2023 as part of Bristol Walk Fest.

And that's all we have to say, other than please remember the extraordinary can be found everywhere and in everyone.
