PlaygroundsCouncillor Crouch at Camp Road, Marport

The Council is committed to a rolling provision of good quality play facilities, on sites identified as being of strategic importance. The aim of each equipped play area is to provide play value with as wide a range of play facilities as possible, whilst bearing in mind the responsibility for health & safety, maintenance and inspection costs. You can locate the nearest playgrounds to your home using the Parks and Playgrounds layer of the Find my Nearest search on our mapping pages.

Camp Road, Maryport

Coun. John Crouch, the Mayor of Allerdale, officially opened the Camp Road play area in Maryport recently.
The area, which has been revamped to the tune of £58,000, is the third of eight strategic play areas within Allerdale to receive this treatment and follows similar work at Vulcan Park, Workington, and Bellbrigg Lonning, Cockermouth.
At Camp Road, the money has been spent on provision of new play equipment, safe surfacing, new pathways, and so on. Local schoolchildren from the nearby Maryport C of E School were consulted as to what they wanted to happen on the site and their views were incorporated in the final design.Parks Development Photo
