In 2010, the Community Council sought transfer of
ownership and management of the Memorial Field which includes the playground,
from Vale of Glamorgan Council. Concerns about the playground's condition
resulted in a team of residents taking
action to update and provide a better
play area. After consultation with the community, raising funds and seeking permissions,
funding was obtained in late 2012, with the build finishing in the spring of
2013. Since then the area has been in constant use and has provided a vibrant
and much loved hub for younger members of the community and their parents,
guardians, grandparents and childminders.
