A GREEN space in a Hampshire town could be named after a former head teacher who was heavily involved in the local community.
Fordingbridge Town Council has received a request to name the facility after Bill Bray, a former head of the town's junior school.
The land is near Augustus Park, a new housing development that has been built at Whitsbury Road, Fordingbridge.
Calls for the green space to be named after Mr Bray were revealed by Cllr Paul Anstey.
He said: "I think this is an absolutely excellent idea, not just for this (site) but for any other areas where we can identify people who have truly made a difference to the town and we can give them some credit.
"Hopefully we can find some other sites and some other influential people in the town."
