SWALLOWFIELD residents will not have to wait much longer to enjoy a refurbished play area.
In an update posted on social media, Swallowfield Parish Council confirmed works at Riseley playground were ‘almost complete’.
Cllr Laura Edmonds, recreation lead, said: “Playgrounds are very expensive things and we have worked hard to ensure value for money.
“We do hope that you enjoy the new playground and if there are any teething issues, please do contact us.
Cllr Edmonds confirmed around £40,000 had been invested into the refurbishment, funded by development money from Dukes Meadow and the parish council reserves.
She said: “May we thank those residents who completed the Riseley Playground survey at the start of the project, to allow us to hopefully deliver much of what you wanted, namely mud free play and some new equipment. Many thanks to all those involved.”
