  Play area equipment is very, very expensive nowadays and with the added "consideration" of Health and Safety, everything has to be stronger (to withstand vandalism), safer (so the kids can't hurt themselves) and safety matting provided, in case they fall off. This safety matting is incredible expensive too.
  
  Clarendon could/should be a proper adventure play area, with its natural surroundings it's perfect for it.
  Even with just a couple of pieces or so of play equipment, it will cost a fortune and the funding bodies are only funding Strategic Play Areas so I've been told.
  
  I've tried every avenue and I can't make much progress.
  
  I don't agree with Keith's approach about stick one anywhere, as this will lead to even more discontent; put one in a location where it would serve the majority of people/families and the majority of people will be happy.
  We all know you can't please all of the people all of the time, but at least go for the majority.
