Ferndale Drive Park

Closed for playground upgrade

The playground equipment has reached the end of its safe playing life, so we're upgrading it! This is part of our capital works programme budgeted for in our Long-term plan.

Work has begun and the playground will be temporarily closed. View the new design concept on our Have Your Say website.

Ferndale Drive Park offers a delightful and peaceful space for families to enjoy. The park features a playground set against a backdrop of native planting, offering a scenic atmosphere for those looking to connect with nature. A small walking track behind the playground invites you to explore the natural surroundings.

Why it's special 

A perfect blend of play and nature

Ferndale Drive Park combines play with the beauty of nature. The walking track behind the playground gives families the opportunity to get close to nature, making it an ideal spot for both active play and peaceful walks. Whether you're enjoying the playground or exploring the walking track, Ferndale Drive Park offers a unique combination of fun and relaxation in a beautiful natural setting.
