Play Equipment

Moulton Parish Council own and maintain play equipment at the following sites within the parish:

  • Forester Road
  • Moorbridge Road
  • Morning Star Lane
  • Public Gardens
  • Reedings
  • Spinney Close

Playgrounds by their very nature should provide a degree of risk and challenges to the users. At all times it is to be recognised that in providing challenging play there will be an identifiable acceptable degree of risk. The Parish Council aims to offer play spaces which are stimulating, and challenging environments enabling children to explore and develop their abilities.

To minimise risks we carry out internal weekly and quarterly playground inspections in conjunction with an independent annual safety inspection to ensure all our play equipment is safe to use.

Not every accident or incident is serious enough to call the Emergency Services, but they may have an impact on the safety of facilities in the village.

Should a child within your care have an accident at any of the play areas listed below, please report it to the Executive Officer to the Parish Council using the form below. Either by email to infor@moultonparishcouncil.org.uk or by hand to Moulton Community Centre, - Sandy Hill, Reedings, Moulton, Northants, NN3 7AX.
