Play Area and Grounds

For our younger visitors we have an attractive and well equipped adventure play area, which has seating in the form of picnic benches, and is situated very close to our coffee bar. This facility is free to access during our museum opening hours.

The equipment includes:

  • An extensive sandpit with two diggers.
  • Multi play unit with slide and stairs.
  • A bank of three swings, suitable for all ages.
  • Small equipment including springers and accessible play unit.

The play area is surrounded by nature and provides views across the picturesque Abbey Meadows. It is also secured by natural barriers and fencing making it a safe place for children to play and explore.
