Kent Street Weir Park Playground

Down by the weir in Wilson, this little playground punches above its weight for local families. It’s the kind of spot that just works — clean, easy to get to, with parking right there and toilets on hand so you’re not cutting the visit short. Nothing fancy, but that’s honestly part of the appeal. Keep an eye out for the coffee van that shows up every now and then, which is a solid bonus when you’re doing the weekend park run with kids in tow.
