Play areas

This page contains information about the two play areas at Brocks Hill Country Park.

Natural play area

Supported by the Big Lottery Fund, this addition to the park in 2008 was initiated by requests to offer extra play provision for children of all ages and abilities. It covers an area of just under 1.5 acres (0.6 hectares) and boasts a range of play equipment including towers, swings, slides and sand play for younger children; all set around the landscaped 'Brocks Hill Mountain' to encourage 'natural' play.

The design brief was based upon feedback gained from local children and visiting families with the winning design chosen for the innovative use of space and degree of natural and inclusive play.

Under 8's play area

Designed for children under 8 years of age, this smaller play area is situated at the rear of the visitor centre and includes a multi-use play tower, sand play and 'flower' tunnel to keep your toddlers and young children entertained.
