The Garden Grabbers
The 5 live Report investigates the loss of urban gardens, and hears concerns that such developments undermine efforts to prevent further flooding. Presented by Simon Cox.
Across the country a battle is underway to save Britain's gardens. In the past few years, tens of thousands of lawns and shrubberies have been torn up to make way for executive flats and houses after the government re-classified gardens as brown-field sites ripe for development.
But now local residents are fighting back. The 5 live Report investigates the 'garden grabbing' phenomenon and hears concerns that it is undermining efforts to prevent further flooding and provide affordable housing. Presented by Simon Cox.
