Wearmouth Park Update

🎉 Exciting News for Wearmouth Park! 🎉
Our long‑loved playground is about to get a fresh new look – starting this week.
🔨 What to Expect:
-Aug 21–22: Site prep kicks off — fencing and pruning begin.
-Aug 22 (possibly): Dismantling of the old playground may start.
-Sept 8 (weather permitting): Installation of the new playground begins.
⚠ Safety Alert: Once fencing is in place, the playground is closed and unsafe for use.
A few additional notes about the site itself:

-The ground is quite wet, and the grass is currently very lush and soft.
-The existing pathway is old and not in great shape.
-Unfortunately, some damage to the greenspace is expected due to the condition of the site and the need to bring in equipment.

Parks staff will keep greenspace damage to a minimum and complete any needed repairs after construction.
We’re excited to bring this fresh, safe, and fun play space to GlenEagles!
