Play areas update After many years of repairs and replacement beams, the end of the road finally came for the wooden trim trail at Westhill Recreation Ground. In its place we now have a bright, robust trail consisting of steel balance beams and stepping circles. Thanks to some s.106 funding earmarked for Norton Hill Recreation Ground, we have also replaced the wooden climber. This climber has stood the test of time, but, like the trim trail it finally succumbed to rot and has to be replaced. The new climber is similar in design, but more robust in its material. We have taken the opportunity to replace the play surfacing in that section of the play area at the same time. Finally, you may have seen that the basket swing at Westhill Recreation Ground has been missing for some months. It was taken down due to indications of rot in the wooden cantilever arm. A new steel arm has been installed and, as I write, the basket swing is being attached.

These three replacements all came about as a result of rot in the wooden equipment. It is a slow process, but to make the play areas stand up to future wear and tear we are slowly replacing with stronger alternatives.
