One of London’s best-known parks has replaced its long-standing playground, re-designed in all-natural materials, to deliver an inclusive and accessible experience to children. The new playground has almost doubled in size. It boasts a 50m zip wire, bespoke climbing structures and water play alongside the traditional offer of swings, slides and sandpit. The redevelopment also saw the introduction of new SuDS ponds and swales, increasing biodiversity and improving the landscaping of the area, creating proper drainage meaning the land is less susceptible to waterlogged and obstructed footpaths.
