Horspath playground

Horspath playground

Date of Adventure: 24 Aug, 2025

The Horspath playground behind the village hall has had a serious glow-up! It’s fantastic to see this huge investment in play. We went when this was new new so if you see any building materials in the background don’t worry, all the snags are done and it’s finished now!

I couldn’t believe it when I saw it as it’s like multiple playgrounds merged into one. Here’s the downlow:

✅ two big main play structures
☑️ obstacle course
✅ two trampolines
☑️ huge play-on tractor
✅swings
☑️zip-wire
✅springers
☑️playhouse

Strong tractor theme going on but you don’t have to love the farming vibe to get involved. What a winner!
