Tean Road Rec Arch Set for Imminent Return

A few years ago, the arch had to be removed from Tean Road Recreation Ground following a lorry driving through the gates, causing significant damage to the entrance. The gates have been back in place for some time, but this week we spotted the arch.

On Wednesday, 15th July, blacksmith Lee Trumbull brought the arch back to the recreation ground to test the fit. We are pleased to report it fits perfectly.

The arch is now going to be shot blasted and then painted black with red poppy accents. Lee was also responsible for the straightening out and fitting of the gates in similarly splendid black and red.

Lee and his team carefully testing the fit of the refurbished arch
