Synopsis

The 2.5-acre Talacre Gardens park in north London's Kentish Town was recognised and run by Camden Council only after years of local people's campaigning. This 1974 documentary tells the inspiring story of how it began with charity and locals working together to clear a derelict site in 1971.
