Under the Companion Animals Act 1998, dogs must be on-leash at all times in all parks and public places. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's playground equipment and food preparation areas, from active sports fields during organised sport, public bathing areas, school grounds, and child care centres. Dog faeces must be removed immediately. (Source: The Hills Shire Council — Stay out of the Doghouse, thehills.nsw.gov.au.)

Great oval aside from the fact that someone (or multiple people) seem to be regularly absolutely obliterating the bathroom here. I feel so bad for whoever has to clean it because clearly some people have no respect for others and decide to smear their faeces everywhere. Today the toilet seat was even flipped around along with the regular poop carnage! The oval itself is great, can people please just stop using the toilet here as a diarrhoea hotspot.

Local park. Few parking spots. Nice walking track with plenty of greens. Play area for kids and also some exercise equipment.

Lovely location to go for your walks, play with the kids or just relax under the shade.

Saw council workers in hazmat suits applying weed killer all over the park on Monday morning 22nd September. If this stuff is bad for the workers then it can't be good for people, athletes, kids or pets using the ground floor sport or recreation. Why don't council level up with the community on the chemicals they are using on the grounds and when so users aren't subjecting themselves unknowingly to cancer causing chemicals??
