Nice little park, this. My daughter loves visiting here during our walks. Be even better if the Council mowed it a bit more regularly! And why not let doggies in if on a lead? Or put another fenced bit for a small off-leash area? Still, can't have everything.. Or can we?

A nice little park with a flat grassed area. Play equipment good for younger children including 4 swings and a set of monkey bars.

A nice park with 4 swings, a see saw and a slide. There is also lots of room to run around, a place to sit and eat and bins. The only drawback is a bathroom. Otherwise a nice place in a residential area. It is also about 100 metres away from the cafe.

Small but has almost everything needed for a quick afternoon for the little ones.
