The site offers enormous potential with a secure, fully functioning clubhouse, featuring male and female toilets, kitchenette area, storage space and plenty of room for meetings. The building is surrounded by a pleasant grassed area with shade trees and access paths. The garden space itself is fully fenced and lockable and has great exposure in a busy part of Holmesville.
The whole facility is a tribute to the former Tennis Court committee and we have honoured these people and the gardens former role as a tennis court, by including elements of the sport of tennis in our garden logo.

On October 6, 2016 our group was handed the keys to the disused tennis courts on the corner of George & Charlotte streets, Holmesville for the purpose of transforming the site into a community garden. Not only have we saved a valuable space from further degradation, and eventually loss to the community, we now have the potential to transform the site in to something that the whole community can be a part of.
An operating committee has been formed to take control the building and its re-development, with the aim of bringing it up to a standard where it can be hired out to community and private groups for functions and meetings. The gardens themselves will be developed by WWDSNG and we invite all members of West Wallsend District to come on board this exciting development.
