Is it definite that Forest Hill is getting an Energy Garden or is next week's meeting just a preliminary meeting? I couldn't find anything on the website that suggests FH has been chosen.

I don't see that FH station is a particularly good location. They could remove the existing plants on the plot at the back wall of WH Smith and turn it into an allotment (good luck keeping the bindweed at bay) but what about water? Unless they introduce water harvesting measures then all the water is piped in - hardly very 'green'. And growing vegetables needs a lot of water.

As Michael has said, solar panels on the roof would be good.

As for the fenced area, I think they use it for occasional storage. Not sure if it's Network Rail or the station who use it.
