A brand new fun-sized bowl has been built in Bishops Park in West London. The bowl looks small, whippy and could well be fun to skate but we have no idea who built it as we write this. Allegedly, the bowl has been sat there since November doing nothing but word is that it will be open to skate this Spring when the rest of the park that has been restored this winter is re-open to the public.
Bishops Park is situated in Putney/Fulham borders on the north side of Putney Bridge, just off the Fulham Palace Rd. Horror film lovers may remember that All Saints Church near to this park featured in the first ‘Omen’ film. Get in’spire’ed.

The local skate scene of Croydon are welcoming a new skate park build thanks to the recent hard graft from Freestyle Skateparks. The park that is based just off the Purley Way in Wandle Park has approx’ 550m2 of concrete to skate and looks like it could flow well from these photos that were taken on site yesterday by the team.
The skatepark was designed with the local skaters and BMXers of Croydon as part of a redevelopment of Wandle Park that is scheduled to open to the public by the Mayor of London sometime in April. Watch this space and get hyped on the fact that the Croydon scene has some new ‘crete this Spring.
