More about this scene

Perry Spring was built round a courtyard, and included a community centre. Some sculptures, 'Torsos', by Karel Vogel, were sited outside. The centre was to be managed by the Potter Street Residents and Community Association. Landlord and tenant matters were to be dealt with by the residents' committee. This has proved to be one of the most successful associations in Harlow.
