Great addition to the park. Swings, sandpits and other things to do. Although it was busy didn't have to wait to use anything. Lots of benches for parents/carers to sit and relax · via Google [Darren Findlay](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113732656090047901808/reviews) ★★★★★ A superb playground! If visiting the Dinosaurs or the Crystal Palace remains with children this is a total must visit. My four year old was giddy and played for almost two hours. Mostly wood playground with a huge climbing frame in the shape of laying down dinosaur. Swings of various types and a huge fine and clean sandpit. Highlight is the great slides and overall landscaping. It has a wall of different materials that mimic the geological strata wall at the Dinosaurs. Simply one of the best playground I have ever seen. Please please keep this amazing spot preserved for all time! · via Google [Sam Bates](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/114636351831064311206/reviews) ★★★★★ One of the best playgrounds I've seen in London · via Google [Victoria Egbonwon](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/107463644477180327710/reviews) ★★★★★ The park looks lovely and has a good range of equipment ranging from slides to climbing frames. However, as it recently opened and it being Easter holidays, the park was overcrowded and somewhat manic with the amount of children running around. I hope this will smooth out over time but I won’t be going back during peak periods. The old playground is still there so may be useful for those who need a quieter environment I.e SEN children · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x48760169a889cded:0x915b7d0ca39244f3!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) People say this playground features a wide variety of equipment, including a huge climbing frame, various swings, and a large sandpit.
