Enjoy relaxing in the Great Outdoors? Update 30/5/12 : 3 new picnic benches and extra bin have now been installed This idea was taken forward by the village plan action group (Village Plan Project Ref 21) led by Julia Stirland and Kath Soanes in liaison with the Oxton Recreation Ground working group and a detailed proposal submitted to the Parish Council in November 2011 with their recommended type, designs, fixings, supplier, number and location for the picnic tables. Locations for the new tables were determined by observations of current picnicing activity and where people naturally congregate on the field. No particular area of the recreation ground provides shade throughout the day so each table will have a parasol hole should users wish to bring their own. Location 'a' is for the accessible bench which has an extended top to allow wheelchair access. Locations 'b' and 'c' are for the standard-size designs. For more information on these tables which are made of recycled plastic for environmental, durability and hygiene factors, see the manufacturer's website at |
