What's here
Hocken Street Playground is a small neighbourhood playground in Kenmure, a residential suburb in Dunedin's Kaikorai Valley about five kilometres west of the city centre. An old style play fort, swings and a tyre climb suit toddlers through early primary age, pitched deliberately smaller than the equipment at major parks.
