Ashton Court

The latest move by Bristol Council was a letter to the activists, insisting on the right of the council to inspect the tunnels, together with someone from quarry contractors Pioneer Aggregates at that! They were laughed off but refusal will mean that an eviction notice or possession order will be served soon. In court, people have been let off charges for assault and aggravated trespass, others have been fined with £20 court costs. Several parties are planned: a Winter Solstice one on site, for December 21st, and a Prisoner Support Ceilidh on Jan 30th in St Werburgh Community Centre.
