Playground

Where it is/General info: As you enter the parks, main North Entrance follow the path to the left and you will find our playground. This is a playground with all the expected swings and slides but also a lot more. Expect to also find rock grottos and a whole lot of nature to explore.

What Plant/Tree life to look out for: The area is filled with natural grassy mounds and planted with a wide variety of trees from Scots Pine, Hazel and Birch. These not only provide shade but are also to add complimentary habitat to the large variety of robust plants and shrubs.

What Insect/Bird/Animal life to look out for: Lots of the park’s usual wildlife residents and guest. There are lots of insects, squirrels and birds. Don’t disturb if you find it, but in this area, there is a secret habitat of the elusive lesser Stag Beetle. No touching them or disturbing their home but pictures are welcome.

The Playground is free to use and is for ages 3-12 years. Children should be accompanied by an adult.
