Thompson Park Burnley

Brilliant day today walking the Wayside Arts Trail around Burnley, taking in two of the pianos as part of the ‘Play me I’m yours’ project in Burnley and Blackburn – www.bbstreetpianos.com.  One of the pianos is sited by the amazing Singing Ringing Tree which  makes haunting music as the wind blows through it.  There was also a bird’s nest wedged at the top of the tree (well, that’s where birds do nest after all).

After our walk, we travelled to a third piano at Thomson Park.  This was a bit of a pilgrimage, as until about three weeks ago this piano was in our living room.  For a few years, it had been relegated to a kind of badly-designed piece of storage furniture.  So when I heard about this project, I decided to give it a new (albeit temporary) home.
