Play Area

Honestly, for a town the size of Chipping Norton, this place punches well above its weight. You’ve got the usual slides, swings, and climbing frame, but the zipline is the real draw — kids will queue for it on a busy afternoon. There’s also a basketball court and a proper football pitch if older ones need somewhere to burn off energy, plus an outdoor gym for any parents who feel guilty just sitting on the bench. And there are actual benches and picnic tables, so you can make a proper afternoon of it rather than hovering awkwardly. Parking nearby makes the whole thing far less stressful than it could be.
