Phew thank god life getting back to normal in Eastern Cardiff,trust them to jump on the front foot and lead the way for others,.
It's always (OK, Mostly!!) drug related.
Harris Avenue-Rough as..Originally Posted by Nelsonca61
I used to walk through Harris Avenue to skool as a Junior, and then when when i was in Rumney College (if it was wet, if dry took the easy option and walked across the park. it was mad then but roaming dogs were the main problem, and is probably why I have never had and am not keen with dogs.
There's always problems down there with gang fights etc. A fair few Wrong uns down there.
Not this time .
Toilet rolls apparently.
Cardiff , compared to london , bristol , birmingham , Nottingham, manchester , leeds and liverpool has never seen much drug related gun crime
But it does seem to be creeping in
And to hear gunshots whilst you are minding your own business in your front room , washing your car , walking down the street must be terrifying
No one minds their own business in Harris Avenue
It's not that run town though , I would be more worried walking down Clifton street or parts of north grangetownNo one minds their own business in Harris Avenue
Harris Avenue is as rough as a badgers arse.
I remember this rd in the way to Rumney college late 80’s, it was always a bit hit and miss then. Lots of fridges and old cars in bits along the rd, dogs everywhere as another poster mentioned. The short cut that no one ever wanted to take. Wouldn’t even go that way on my Vespa
Grangetown's mean and nasty status expired a good 10 years ago. Yuppies and the middle classes have successfully seen to that. Nothing more than a myth now, as far as inner city neighbourhoods go.
Riverside is slowly becoming gentrified.
In fairness it's a bloody great location so no real surprise it is getting gentrified. Should the Dumballs Road/Brains Brewery site developments go ahead, the value in the riverside and grangetown properties will go through the roof.
Years ago it was posh and Pontcanna wasn’t according to my late uncle......
Cardiff city council ? ? ?
or some house association ? ? ?
Ive not been around cardiff council estates for so long now
used to know a fair few guys who worked for cardiff council, as i worked for the VOG council as a chippy
Scum on scum. Trust me.....
some decent people in harris avenue but looks like drug and gun culture is part of the norm nowadays
we never had any problems around here but the last 12 months has seen a turn for the worse
Gun culture certainly isn't part of the 'norm' in the UK.
Have you driven down virgil street to allerton street grangetown by the old city pub ?
I have a friend living there and there is open coke and heroin dealing in the middle of the day
Clifton street is going the same way
That's absolute standard in alot of areas of cardiff. Drugs everywhere.
We live on Greenway Road, very close to where the incident took place. We heard what we thought was a minor explosion this afternoon and only found out about 7pm that it was gunfire. There are some wrong uns in this area and it's getting worse.
What's trowbridge like ?
as for trowbridge just like any other estate in south wales sludge
good and bad
