Description
Paradise Park is an anthology of photographs organised by Karen Ingham and taken by professional photographers, students and local residents. Their subject is Townhill, an estate perched on a hill above Swansea, south Wales, which was once at the cutting edge of urban planning but is now run down and with various social problems. Robert Minhinnick supplies an accompanying and evocative prose text.
