The Glover Playground

I’ve a partiality for parks. I never used to, but I do nowadays. It’s how I achieve my vitamin D, I guess, though I (mostly unwittingly) tend to avoid what sunlight I can whilst I laze about on the green green grass.
The more parks I visit, the more I’ve come to think of myself as a sort of park genius. My knowledge s’far extends thus far: a park NEEDS a tap. It’s rare I’ll drive to a park. It just doesn’t feel parky (and that’s about as far as I’ve reasoned into the disinclination). I’ll walk (if the distance is friendly) or catch public transport (if it’s cruel). And when I’m lugging around a bunch of notepads, pens and books, the LAST thing I want to do is carry a water bottle as well. So it’s good to replenish my stock with a little tap water.
And with a tap you NEED a toilet. I don’t mind going bush (well, depending on the… matter of expulsion), but I’ve been caught WAY too often. Honestly, if I’m a parking genius I’m also a pissing dunce.
And, though the long-​winded intro sounded like the wind-​rush judge’s swinging hammer, I’m happy to report this park has BOTH of those things.
And [insert groan-​joke about the park fitting like a glove].

The Glover Playground was originally built in the 1920s but this incarnation has all a modern child could desire.
It features an adventure playground with a rope bridge, along with all the usual equipment swings and slides. The kids seem to love the quirky space-​age apparatus, such as the spinning circle.
This is a really family friendly playground, with a barbecue on site, It also has sun shade.
No dogs are allowed in the playground, although they are permitted in the park nearby, and the area is fenced off.
There’s a drinking water fountain is situated beside a child safety gate at the playground’s entrance and disabled-​friendly men’s and women’s toilets are nearby.
