New swings now open at Cheswardine Playing Field

The new swings at Cheswardine Playing Field are installed and back in use!

The two replacement metal frames provide two cradle seats for younger children and two flat seats for older children. Repairs have also been completed on a bike ramp and the multi-play equipment.

These improvements form part of Cheswardine Parish Council’s continued investment in the playing field, helping to keep it safe, welcoming and enjoyable for everyone.

The playground is inspected by accredited inspectors four times a year, and the Parish Council takes prompt action when work is needed. The items identified as moderate risk in the August inspection have now been addressed through these replacement and repair works.
Maintenance is an ongoing commitment, supported by regular investment from the Council.

Thank you for your patience while the work was completed. We hope children enjoy using the new swings!

If you have any concerns about the playground, its equipment or our inspection reports, please contact the Clerk at [email protected]

Have you seen our Wildflower Garden sign?

Sadly, we were informed on Saturday that the wooden sign pictured had been taken from the Wildflower Garden at the Playing Field.

If you have seen the sign, know where it is, or can help with its return, please contact Cheswardine Parish Council at [email protected] or let any Parish Councillor know.

We would really appreciate having it back where it belongs. Thank you for your help, and please share this post.

New swings for Cheswardine Playing Field

Work to replace two swing frames at the play area at Cheswardine Playing Field will begin during the week commencing Monday 12 October 2026 and is expected to take around one week.

The existing frames, which have deteriorated with age, will be replaced with new metal frames, providing two cradle seats for younger children and two flat seats for older children.

Only the areas where work is taking place will be temporarily closed. The rest of the play area will remain open.

These improvements form part of Cheswardine Parish Council’s continued investment in the play area, helping to keep it safe, welcoming and enjoyable for all of its users.

Thank you for your patience while these improvements are completed.

The Council is aware that concerns have been raised by some residents following the pigeon flying competition which took place at the Parish Hall and Playing Field over the weekend.
The Council had considered and approved a request for use of the playing field on the basis of the information provided in advance. This indicated that the field would be used for a small controlled release and landing of competition pigeons.

We understand that some residents experienced disruption connected with the event. The Council is sorry to hear that some residents were inconvenienced.

The Parish Hall did receive income from the booking, which supports the ongoing running of this important village facility. However, the feedback received will be taken into account when considering any future requests for private use of the playing field.
