To protect Narroways natural environment from large numbers gathering, Narroways will be closed from 6pm this Sat (after city farm fair). We only close it 3 nights a year, otherwise the nature reserve open and free for local people to connect with nature. Thanks

Narroways closed on New Year's Eve
Sorry once again, local people, but we have to close off the nature reserve on New Year's Eve to protect it from Bristol-wide party people, rubbish etc. Just before dusk we'll be locking the gates until the morning and police will keep an eye.

@st_werburghs We're glad you had a good time. We love local children making the most of their local nature reserve.🙂

NARROWAYS (the mound) IS CLOSED this 5th Nov because huge gathering there last year damaged the nature reserve and was dangerous- 1500 people (some drunk or on drugs) on a steep sided hill, in the dark, with fires and fireworks- we have a duty of care to avoid this risk #Seoul

NARROWAYS IS CLOSED ON NEW YEARS EVE
Insightful article in Bristol Cable on the damage large overnight parties is doing to St Werburghs only nature reserve. Trustees of Narroways are pleading with people not to go onto Narroways (the mound) on New Years Eve. Gates will be locked.

@davidagoodland @harrymacp1 Blimey, that sounds rough! You don't have any photos of Narroways/the railways/St Werburghs from back then do you?

@ASPBristol We had our worst ever night on Narroways. Hundreds of people, blaring sound systems, a laser show and a ton of rubbish everywhere that we haven't even begun to clear. We were told the police would monitor events. Why didn't you confiscate the sound system & laser?

'In light of the recent protests and events round the world, linked to the Black Lives Matter Movement, the trustees of Narroways want to make the following statement.

WHITE👏🏿PEOPLE👏🏿ARE👏🏿TRASH👏🏿

Last night I was loudly verbally abused by a drunk racist in earshot of hundreds of white liberal lets-bring-our-djembes-and-our-dutty-dreads, one-love-one-pervasive-middle class types on the mound in St Werburghs and PEOPLE 👏🏿DID 👏🏿 NOTHING!!

[narroways @narroways]

@sharifawjames Hello Sharifa, we were so sorry to hear of your experience on Narroways Hill. It is so disappointing that no-one spoke up to defend you against racism. We will be putting out a statement on the notice board and social media that everyone has a right to enjoy Narroways LNR.

I want to see an end to raptor persecution in the uplands. Criminal activity needs to be stopped #Inglorious12th https://t.co/sUVcbGALYX

Apparently the footbridge over main line, not the Severn Beach line footbridge. https://t.co/Hv1sPNyern

Network Rail works will mean Narroways footbridge closed for 6 months: https://t.co/LCNSvqFREw
