Save Our Community Spaces, Mossley

To permanently remove Cosgrove Gardens, Greaves Street community space & Mossley community orchard and Spring Street car park & garden from the list of land for sale.

Why is this important?

The recent threat to auction off some of Mossley's community spaces has revealed the urgency to gather support for these spaces, which once gone will never be replaced.

Cosgrove Gardens, Greaves Street ( encompassing Mossley's community orchard and the car park at Cross Street ) were withdrawn from auction. Spring Street car park and gardens have also been withdrawn from auction and are in the process of being registered as a community asset. However, Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council will be reviewing all of these sites in the near future due to ongoing austerity that the council is facing.

We are continuing to oppose the future sale of these public spaces and to ask that they be permanently removed from the list of land for sale so that these spaces can be continued to be enjoyed by the Mossley community.

If you are interested in joining SOCS and supporting this vital work (in any way small or large), or just keeping up with what’s happening in your town, please contact:
