TWO eagerly-awaited new children's play areas have opened in Saltash. Parents and kids were asked what they wanted to see in the Honeysuckle Way and Grassmere Way play areas on Pillmere housing estate.

Hours of fun at new children's play areas

Grassmere is the larger of the two and has swings - one for use by children with special needs - two tower climbing frames with slides, adventure trail and traverse wall. The site, for youngsters aged up to 12, also has special safety surfacing.

Honeysuckle Way, aimed at children aged seven and under, has a new tower climbing frame with slide, swings, spring riders and playboards.

Both areas are enclosed for safety and also have picnic benches for families to use and enjoy.

The project has been possible through £75,000 of grant funding awarded from Cornwall Council's Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) fund with a further £20,000 of funding being allocated by Saltash Town Council.
