Kids use to have fireworks battles on top of the rocks every guy fawkes. Nice little park there. Was great when they use to have the old lullaby swing, bit dangerous to health and safety standards these days. Many a broken bone from flying off it. Has a nice playground and is a alleyway to connect Stirling, laurenson, balmoral and glenkill street.
