Fenced | Partial Shade | Toilets
Address 164 Barker Street, Randwick NSW 2031
Large, multi-level playground featuring swings (including accessible swings), tunnels, slides, climbing mounds and talk tubes all on the ground floor. There is a circular raised platform with further access to the double spiral slides via a climbing net.
Cafes and restaurants are across the lane at the Newmarket precinct, where public toilets are also located.
The playground is illuminated at night, which is helpful for families having dinner at the nearby restaurants.
Parking is the one drawback of this playground. Street parking can be extremely limited, as the playground is located in a busy area (near two schools and across the road from the Prince of Wales and Royal Womens’ Hospitals). However, most street parking nearby is time limited, which does mean there is some turnover in parking spaces.
