Dizzy Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Has anyone been to Walton Gardens over the past few weeks? A lot of changes going on and new walls and building etc and it's looking really good.Not too sure that I agree with the name change of Walton Hall though or the fact it was up for Auction Rather surprised that Gary hasn't had anything about it on the news page either !

Gary Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 The auction related to one of the properties associated with the hall I am pretty sure we have reported on the works taking place in the past - and before I go off investigating the name change are you basing that on the name on the auction board relating to the other property?

Bazj Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I see Gary has his finger on the pulse again!!! :smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy51 Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I think you might find it is all to do with the filming due to take place with Walton Hall standing in as the original Chester Zoo. There was an article in the Guardian about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted April 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 At least Baz and Davy51 understood Gary ..... I am shocked at you though as people knew all about it way before it was in the WG athough the council are keeping rather hush hush about it all... but I guess you don't get out much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted April 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Just for you Gary as word clearly didn't spread in the breeze your way....The backs of the new lovely walls and other building plus a few others. Probably changed again since these were taken though so off you pop tomorrow and can you find out when the penquins etc are actually going to be brought down for filming cos I'd like to see those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did hear reports of one of the properties associated with the hall being up for sale/auction and put two and two together and got five! Got finger on too many pulses Too busy to even be on here really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Sounds like he's ducking and diving - looks good with the temporary wall though - did you have a permit to take the photos Dizzy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 You don't need a permit to take photo's in a public place Geoff But I wasn't hiding in the bushes dressed in camouflage with my pop and butties if that's what you think and YES the film crew did see me taking them and I even spoke to a couple of them briefly and we were laughing cos I'd left my camera lense cap on again and wondered why I couldn't see anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 The trailer.... looks like it will be quite good. I wish I'd have seen all the animals there though but I always seemed to time it wrong..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
