Piccadilly Gardens has gone from "mud baths to Wimbledon" thanks to the installation of a lush new turf. The grass at the famous garden has now been replaced after the Christmas markets and other events left it looking like muddied and looking worse for wear.
Last year pictures of the city centre garden showed the area trodden and sparse after a number of events including the EURO cup fan zone, Christmas market stalls and a New Year's Eve countdown event. Following complaints, the council announced plans to returf the garden 'as soon as possible'.
