Hawkins Walk Play Area

Handy little spot if you’re already in town and need somewhere to let the kids loose for half an hour. The slides, swings, and climbing structure keep the 2–12 crowd busy, and the open grass alongside gives older ones room to run around properly. Parents will appreciate being able to keep an eye on everything without much effort — the layout doesn’t hide much. It’s urban, it’s practical, and it’s close enough to the shops that you can tick off errands in the same trip.
