Playground Richmond Green

One of the better spots in Carlisle for little ones, honestly. The play area is properly fenced, which makes a real difference when you’ve got toddlers who like to make a run for it — you can actually relax for five minutes. Slides, swings, and a merry-go-round cover the basics well, and the equipment is kept in decent nick. What pushes it ahead of some of the other local options is the open grass and football pitch right next to it, so older siblings aren’t just standing around bored while the younger kids play.
