BURRATOR DRIVE PLAY AREA

#BDPA

BLOG
A small / medium sized park with lots of open space. It has two sets of swings and a wooden assault course in the centre of the park. There is a small hill which looks like a small creature may of made a home in the past. A small amount of Field elm is on top the hill and is good for kids to use for various games. Just outside of the enclosed area there are several mature trees and more green space. Great views of the river Exe can also be found here.
