Thorpe Recreation Ground

This recreation ground has got lots of green space, great for taking the dogs for a walk, kicking a ball around or flying a kite. On the weekends there are often football matches played here too.
There are some hard tennis courts as well and I think a bowling green, but the thing we make the most use of is the kids playgrounds. They have a separate one for children aged 10 and under and another area for bigger kids. They both have huge fences round which doesn’t look that nice but does serve the purpose of keeping vandals out and so the equipment is well maintained. They are currently in the process of updating some of the equipment, although I hope they keep the old-​fashioned ride-​on horse!
