Plympton Oval Playground

Locals with young kids know this one well — it’s the kind of spot you can actually relax at because the fencing does its job properly, keeping little ones well away from the road. The shade situation is decent enough that you’re not standing there squinting and sweating through a Tuesday afternoon visit. It’s small, sure, but sometimes that’s exactly what you want when you just need somewhere contained and close to home. Solid neighbourhood playground, nothing fancy, does what it needs to do.
