Dog rules

–Inner West Council's "Dog exercise areas" page states: "By law, dogs must be on a leash in public places unless the area is a designated off-leash area." Inner West Council publishes a list of gazetted off-leash areas; this venue is not on that list, so the council's general on-leash rule applies under the NSW Companion Animals Act 1998.

This small reserve appears to have undergone some recent refurbishment, with two new benches, signage, and new steps, complete with metal "tactiles" to assist visually impaired people. One of the signs includes instructions in Braille. Overall this place is in excellent condition.
