A tent & bluebells in the 'Eco Village' in Runnymede woodland. A community set up by a people living an alternative lifestyle.


An offshoot group of 'Occupy London' established an 'eco-village' at Runnymede (associated with Magna Carta). The group of around 40 people including children live in dispersed self build huts, tents and shacks often built from reclaimed materials. Following various court proceedings the group face renewed eviction in May 2015 ahead of the 800th anniversary celebrations of Magna Carta.
