A new adventure playground is set to put smiles on the faces of children in Crawley.
The facilities at Cherry Lane are being completely transformed with a climbing zone in the trees, a large sand and water play area and a tunnel-based underground zone.
It is hoped the focus of play will return to a ‘back-to-basics’ feel with digging in mud, outdoor cooking using a fire pit and den building.
The work is due to be completed by Easter next year.
