The £200,000 refurbishment includes a new skatepark, expanded play area and a new multi-use games area suitable for football, basketball, cricket and other sports.

Work on the revamp has now started, with the new games area – funded by the grant from Suez – and council-funded play area earmarked for completion before Christmas.
