Meltham Road Rec, Honley

About the site

Meltham Road Recreation Ground, Honley, also known as Honley Top Rec, has funding to improve and enhance the play area.

Together with our in-house Landscape Architects and in conjunction with your local Ward Councillors we have created a design which increases the size of the play area and improves accessibility.

Project overview

The design includes:

  • New play equipment including the neus altitude, new multiplay climbing frame, cantilever basket swing and small babel drum.
  • Inclusion of sensory play.
  • Some existing equipment will be kept and refurbished, this includes the existing climbing frame, roundabout and swings.
  • Full resurfacing of the play area and extension with an accessible, bounded rubber mulch safety surface to replace the existing bark.
  • The existing fencing will be extended around the new equipment.
  • Existing benches are being retained, and a new bin provided.
