Adventure play area - Kilkenny Lane Country Park

With sensory elements, landscaped features such as mounds and tunnels, and some unusual features (like willow igloos and a totem pole) the play area aims to exercise the mind as well as the body and is the first of its kind in the District.

Children of all ages will find old favourites, a zip-wire, swings and slides, or discover new ones as they bounce on trampolines or swing in hammocks, dig in the sandpit or venture into a willow maze.

The play area is sited at the western end of the park and has a small car park close by. For more details, including a downloadable map, please visit our directions page.

The Council worked hard to secure funding for this project and believes it has created a special area for children and families in West Oxfordshire to play and be active in a natural environment. Funding has come from:

• Big Lottery Fund (£80,000)
• Developers of Shilton Park, Carterton (£50,000)
• Government's Playbuilder Grant Fund (£50,000).

The play area is inspected on a regular basis.

Harry and George (pictured) said "Playing tag on the climbing frame and nets is brilliant. It's the best play park in the world".
