The Millennium Field

The Millennium Field was purchased and developed as a playing field to commemorate the new Millennium. Since then, we have invested in a range of equipment for every age group – or you can just visit to take advantage of our picnic table and bench. 
​For the very youngest, we have a toddler slide, spring rides and swings.
For children, we there are swings, a large slide and a fitness trail.
For adults there is a range of fitness equipment – a gym with a view!
We also have a mini football pitch with a goal and a basketball hoop.

If you are visiting the Millennium Field, please make sure that you follow all the safety advice displayed and please help us to keep the area safe and tidy by using the bins provided. Please note NO DOGS ALLOWED.
