Phillipstown Walks

Viviana Zanetti from Phillipstown Community Hub

*What places in Phillipstown are special to you?* 😍
.
Phillipstown Community Hub is planning a guided neighbourhood walk event, and we need your help deciding which ‘world famous in Phillipstown’ spots to visit.

We are interested in any suggestions you have - from sites with an interesting history, all the way to street art that makes you smile (Edmonds Gardens & Bronskis dairy have been popular suggestions so far)!

Help us populate our big walking tour map by dropping your suggestions in the comments below.

For the purposes of this event, we are looking for locations between Hereford St, Aldwins/Ensors Rd, Lismore/Laurence St, and Fitzgerald Ave.

If you would be willing to talk about the spots you suggest on our walk, we would love that too! Let us know in your comment if you are open to sharing your story in person, or fill out this Google Doc forms.gle....

The first Phillipstown Guided Neighbourhood Walk is set for late April/early May. Keep an eye on the @PhillipstownCommunityHub Facebook page for more details. See you there!
