Water Play Areas and Playgrounds: Share Your Views

At Barnes Common, we are working to further develop the Master Plan for the renovation of Vine Road Park. What features would you like to see?

Our plans include two playgrounds and a water play design with a combination of fountains and various water sprays. Share your views via our online surveys, or meet Eliza, our project officer at the playground on the following dates for a chat: Thursday, 14th July 1-4pm, Saturday 23rd July 12-3pm, Saturday 13th August 12-3pm and Tuesday 23rd August 9-12am.

Currently the Master Plan design includes two playgrounds. One 0-5 playground located closer to the main entrance of the park, close to the new café and toilettes. The other playground for older kids will be where the current adventure playground is located. This will also be an adventure playground with a newer and more inclusive design. We need your thoughts and ideas to help develop these designs for further community consultations and eventual planning permission submission. Please share your views regarding the playgrounds here.

The water play design currently includes a combination of fountains and various water sprays. We would like to avoid the bright colors and large plastic features that are often seen at splash pads, and opt for a design which will have multi season appeal. The plan also includes water play for 0-5, closer to the main entrance of the park by the new café and toilet facilities. Please share your views regarding the water play design here.
