Closure of Discovery Play Area - Bramley Green

Following a recent external annual play inspection, several items of equipment at the Discovery Play Area (Mayflower Park/Parsons Close) were identified as needing repair or replacement — including both swing sets and the multi-play unit.

The equipment is now over 20 years old and has served Angmering well during that time. We have been reviewing this area for some time, particularly considering its overall condition and usage. Its location beneath several trees means the site is frequently shaded, leading to moss growth and accelerated wood deterioration.

For safety reasons, we have closed the play area, and it will remain shut while we determine the next steps.

We will be launching a survey to gather feedback from residents on what they would like to see in Mayflower Park in terms of new or improved play equipment. We’ll be promoting the consultation with posters on the park railings, notices in the parish council office window and boards, and via social media.

If you have any suggestions for this area, please do get in touch.
