Residents have pulled together to help protect a valued community park from vandalism.
New fencing has been installed at the green space and children's play area near Benson Avenue on the Branksome Estate after vehicles damaged the grass.
The Good Neighbours Group (a residents' association), ward councillor Chris Harris and council officers worked together to find a solution.
New fencing has now been installed to help protect the area, with a new gate for the play area, helping make the space safer.

"It's been a good project to work on, together with local residents to help improve neighbourhood spaces for the community to enjoy," said a Lancaster City Council spokesperson.
"Residents Associations and Friends' groups play an important part in the work the council does to continually make improvements across the district."
