The Devonport Heritage Trail
project is based upon the desire to connect up and celebrate Devonport's heritage features through the creation of a circular walkway. The route will link in to the existing Plymouth Waterfront Walkway in Stonehouse and will be of benefit to both local people and visitors to the area. Currently Devonport receives very few visitors to Plymouth despite its naval traditions. The Devonport Heritage Trail will change this and enable the delights of Mount Wise, the Guildhall and Devonport Park to be enjoyed by a wider audience.
Devonport Heritage Trail Arts Strategy
PCC and DRCP worked with local residents during 2008 to produce an Arts Strategy for Devonport. This looked at introducing the work of artists in to the regeneration work that was ongoing in Devonport. This involved community workshops during September 2008, where the idea to create a trail around Devonport came from. Following approval of this Arts strategy PCC advertised nationally for artists to come forward to deliver a Heritage Trail in Devonport. Over 50 applications were received. PCC and DRCP wanted to select a shortlist of artists who were capable of delivering the work and willing to work together with local residents. The shortlist of four artists is now presented for local people to express their preferences. Please take the time to read the following document and email your views on the four proposals to Mr Chris Coldwell at Plymouth City Council by clicking HERE. RESULTS so far: It seems that most people favour the Stone Benches & Steel Discs ideas, with some support for the Glass Panels as long as they're incorporated into a secure building e.g. The new Pavilion. Pto show your support for your favourite idea, just use the email link above.
