Abbey Park Community Association (APCA) are pleased with the improvements the playground on Abbey Park and we hope you are too.

 

Phase 1 of improvements is now complete and we are now looking at Phase 2 along side Rushcliffe Borough Council (RBC) officers. 

​​​

Two benches have been installed on the park during 2024 and are enjoyed by many people. They really have been a fabulous addition. See stock photo below.

​

APCA discussed the potential for adult outdoor gym equipment to be included on the park. As with most things, it's a long time in the planning, but it continues to move forward and we hope to bring you some news in early 2025.

​

Subject to funding there is potential in Phase 2 to include a MUGA (Multi Use Games Area) with low level football goals on the flat area between the trees/bank and the rear of the houses on Waltham Close - see drawing below. This eventually incorporate landscape planting so the views from the nearby houses remain green and pleasant. ​

​

​At the beginning of March 2025 APCA volunteers installed a Willow Weave Tunnel (See photographs below) similar to the one in West Bridgford Park. Positioned between the play park and the nature trail, it provides a natural link between the two area. Obviously, it will need to establish itself, so we ask that you and your children respect this while the cordon is in place.
