We have now visited the triangle over Xmas and yes there is a rather fine rock climbing thingy there but no swings. Fiona Alleyns email to Vipes in September suggests that the swings may be replaced however they appear to have gone altogether.

I would therefore like to know who did the demographic research to establish that facilities for very young children such as swings were no longer required.

I would like to know more about the overall expenditure on this park. Are they really saying that ?40k has gone on the rock climbing structure? It doesn't even have a proper safe surface- only rubber matting over the grass. This will become problematic when it starts to grow and will become very slippery, also it does not provide adequate protection if children fall.

The rest of the playpark is still in its awful state - is that it now or are we to expect more improvements? I can't believe that available money has gone to provide one completely new item to the exclusion of everything else.

Perhaps local councillors could comment? Thanks.
