The equipment suits older, school-aged children who enjoy climbing and swinging, while a one-year-old can usually manage only the slide and swing.

Seating is spread across the grounds, and the open lawns leave plenty of room for picnics, so groups can cook, eat and relax under cover without leaving the park.
