From the Wikipedia article
Stonebridge City Farm is an urban farm in St Ann's, Nottingham, England. Founded in 1978, it occupies a three-acre site in an area of long-term regeneration. The farm stands on land originally earmarked for a school and its grounds, a plan that was never realised. The farm has gardens, a café, a shop, a play area for children, toilets, handwashing facilities, and a barn. It is a registered charity, hosts educational visits and work experience, is run entirely on grants, donations, and sales through the cafe and shop. It has staff and over 150 volunteers per week.

Background
History
The St. Ann's area of Nottingham underwent a great deal of slum clearance starting in the 1960s and 1970s, making way for more modern council housing. Although much of the area was regenerated, a school that was planned for the site was cancelled, and the land became derelict. Urban farms had started to appear in the Netherlands and, in 1977, started to be discussed for this site. On 17 August 1978, a lease was signed, and a barn was erected in May 1980.
