A new, nature based children’s play space is proposed on the slope of the hill on the site of the former animal enclosure. The design of this space focuses on the provision of nature based, custom design with the central feature being a large water play area and rock cascade.

 

A large, decorative paved area at the centre of the space will feature water jets and clambering rocks with water channelling towards the rock cascade. This cascade will be built using local stone and in a form which reflects the local Grange Burn and Wannon Rivers.
