Play Areas

The play areas are inspected once a week by Nuture who work for the Land Trust. If you should find anything which needs immediate attention, please take a picture and send to the Land Trust indicating in which play area the issue has arisen on specifying the site as Waverley - enquiries@thelandtrust.org.uk

Central Park play area can be accessed off Derwent Chase and Leopold Way. It has a small football net, and play equipment for a range of ages. It is a self-contained area surrounded by a fence.

The Harworth Group annually donate the Christmas tree. It is decorated by the residents alongside the WCC who organise the Christmas Light Switch-on.

The Young Children's play area is just off Stephenson Way. It was initially built as a temporary play area for younger children. It has become a very popular play area; the Harworth Group have incorporated it into the plans for Olive Lane.

For safety reasons, it is currently unavailable. When Sky-houses have completed the house build, new park equipment will be installed by Harworth, in the same area but set-back from the road.

There is a small park in the Autumn Fields area, which is waiting for a safety inspection, before it can be opened and used.

The Waverley Park, which includes the Bike Track, is still being developed and will run behind the Junior Academy for approximately 1.5 km and wend its way to the Lakes. It will have zoned areas with different features and is due to be completed in phases as the Waverley site grow.

Now the Bike Track is in place, Harworth are looking to deliver the rest of the park in three phases. They ran a public consultation in April 2024, and this was followed by planning applications relating to the different phases. More information about Harworth's design for the park can be found here.
