Playground area needs shade sails or something to block out the sun - the entire play area is exposed to the sun and can get really hot even during mornings. Park is very dog-friendly, with a huge grass area that is generally well maintained (mowed) on a regular basis. Dogs are frequently seen running and playing fetch in the area, and chilling under the shade. Downside is that there’s no public tap that would be beneficial for dogs to drink from or kids to wash their hands. Would love to see this be installed somewhere in the future!

Needs attention from the council for the improvements. Small children play ground and one cricket practice net.

This park's children playground area is old and desperately in need of an upgrade. The ground is covered by sawdust and not the soft foam surface like other playground. There is no sun cover protection for the kids. There is no water to wash hands and only one yellow bin is available which is not for garbage. The wooden benches are old and worn out.
