Himley park Playground
In summer 2021 we asked for your views about installation of a new playground in our grounds, as it had been identified that the park does not have a dedicated area for children.
We are proposing to extend our offer for visitors with children by building a child’s play area, toilet facilities and a small catering facility on the Capability Brown landscaped gardens.
Great news, our survey supported our own views – that there is a huge demand for such an area at the park. We have gained funding of over £400k to build a dedicated area and are currently consulting with South Staffordshire to gain their agreement and pulling up plans, such as playground equipment wants.
The proposal is that this playground would be situated in the old tennis pavilion area of the park and will cause minimal disruption during the build process. We plan to keep everyone up to date with what’s going on – keep checking this website.
Don’t worry if you are an adult who enjoys using the park to go for walks as we are intending for this area to be unintrusive so should not affect your enjoyment of the site.
