The equipment are greatly in need of repairs. A great meeting place for local children,parents and carers. Large open space for picnics but dogs roam across freely.

This little park in the middle of a very built up area is much used by families with children. However it is not well maintained by Ealing Council. Badly planned and very badly maintained. The wood is rotting and the Sandall over kids play ground instead of rubber matting under swings etc is a really bad planning as kids and adults ruin their footwear and go home with shoes full of sand. Such a shame as it could be a beautiful play area.

It comprises under London borough of Ealing in West part of London. It is a nice and quiet park, has handful of properties which children likes. It is very spacious which filled with sand and well maintained. It is covered by green and has Gym corner too. Massive amount of sand, slides, table tennis wee hillock, boulders, climbing apparatus and plenty of grass. Slides are quite high, so guardian should watch out for the children who are under 3. If you are nearby I would recommend this park to visit for a wonderful time and relaxation.
