The Parish Council are pleased to announce that the Parish playgrounds at Bradley Rd, Harestock and Littleton Recreation Ground are now open. The adult gym equipment at Littleton Recreation Ground is open, as is the newly installed Parkour (Free Running) area which has received the approval to open following a ROSPA installation safety check. The Parish Council would like to thank Winchester City Council for contributing the major part of the costs for the Parkour equipment through a Community Infrastructure Levy grant.

Please could users, parents and carers take note of the guidelines for the safe use of the equipment which is available on sign boards at the playground entrances, and near the gym equipment and Parkour facility. The Parish Council asks everyone to maintain appropriate social distancing when using these facilities.
