Large free park in Ward End with a centrepiece climbing dome, three play zones, basketball court, and two AstroTurf football pitches. Best for active families with confident climbers aged 8 and up.
๐ Funzaroo Verdict
Best for active families with children aged 8 and up who can tackle the large climbing dome confidently. The buddy system - one adult guiding from below, one accompanying the child - is strongly recommended on the dome. Younger children have dedicated zones.

โMulti play zones/hubs 3 in all a classic park area with swings brilliant climbing structure (which parents will know their childs comfortable height to climb) best to work in twos one to guild and one to climb, I would personally advise support such as a buddy system for 8 plus & definite supervision for younger children on the climbing structure, as well as seesaw slide an inventive voice carry pipes where children can talk into a meter high surface/actually a pipe & children on the other side of the play area can hear and talk back its fun fun any age also a dedicated cricket area strip and a multi purpose game court and the fact those areas can be a good distance away from one another due to massive grass areas for picnics, exercise or simply sitting & enjoying the sun when its out. Lovely community play area with arrange of usageโ

Overview
Ward End Play Park centres on a huge climbing dome flanked by three distinct play zones catering to different ages, a basketball court, and two AstroTurf football pitches. Free entry and pram access throughout. Voice-carry pipes add an interactive element between zones. Equipment shows some age in places and litter can accumulate, particularly during busy periods. The dome draws the most enthusiasm from reviewers.
