Valley Road Playing Grounds

If you’ve got little ones under 8, this one’s worth knowing about. The tractor feature is genuinely a hit with toddlers — kids just gravitate to it every time. There’s the usual slides and swings alongside it, all kept in decent nick, which you don’t always get around here. Beyond the play area, there’s a basketball court, a proper soccer field, and a big open grass field that’s good for a kickabout or just letting the dog run. The walking path makes it easy to do a lap while the kids tire themselves out.
