    Watched nursery level League. Nice safe park. Plenty of parking. Bonus... the doughnut shop in the group of shops next door.

    This is a medium-sized open park with a few rugby goal posts set up. On the corner close to the convenience store there is some nice playground equipment.

    This is a great park to take the kids for a picnic and kick a ball. I often take a stroll with my dog a few times around the park.

    Nice trees to climb and fields to run around, but playground has been there for at least 25 years, I remember playing on it as a small child
