NOVEMBER 2020: WE ARE PLEASED TO CONFIRM THAT THE PLAY AREA, ADULT EXERCISE EQUIPMENT & SKATE RAMP CONTINUE TO BE OPEN FOR USE. PLEASE FOLLOW THE GUIDANCE POSTED ACROSS THE SITE
Here's the latest update on the play area reopening:
The new rules mean that there will be some limits: the safety precautions are shown below and we have had to place limits on the number of people inside the fence and on some of the equipment. We don't have any staff and we're finding our way with this so please bear with us. The limits may be subject to change with experience, the rules not-so-much. There are a number of signs in the area but the basic rules apart from these safety ones are: 20 people (of any age) in the park at any one time, no unaccompanied children, and please use the gate to enter and the stile to leave. If you can't use the stile then you can leave via the gate but please keep your distance from opposite-direction traffic!
COVID-19 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
BY USING THIS PLAY AREA YOU ARE AGREEING TO ABIDE BY THE FOLLOWING RULES:
2 of the swings in the play area have been removed and 2 of the bench seats are taped off, all for social distancing. Also, the green tube slide is taped off as it's not possible to clean it well enough to meet the needs of the new precautions.
