BROWNS WOOD LOCAL PLAY 1

Designed for the edge of a local park this play area took the form of a simple brick basin containing a sea of bark chippings, surounding a central space net- trampoline. Various smaller items of play equipment nestled around the basin, which has planting & seating at the rim.
One of the space's key features are a pair of circular self closing gates. These are used to keep dogs away from the bark pit.
