Playground

Solid neighbourhood playground that covers the basics well — slides, swings, a climbing structure, and a sandbox to keep the younger ones busy while the older kids burn off energy. The open grass field alongside it is genuinely useful, big enough for a proper kick-about or just letting toddlers run without worrying about them disappearing into traffic. Works for the full 2-to-12 age spread, which isn’t always a given. Parking’s available, so loading up the pram and all the accompanying gear isn’t the ordeal it can be at some spots. The kind of place locals actually return to on weekends rather than just stumbling across once.
