A Royton councillor and local campaigners have saluted the transformation of Royton Park after more than £150,000 was spent on much-needed improvements.
New play areas, a big sandpit, a brand new slide, new paths and more trees and plants have been installed, with the majority of the cash coming from Section 106 money, funds paid to the council by developers.
Following the removal of part of the play area in 2019, the children s facilities were in dire need of improvement.
There were numerous incidents of vandalism to the play areas, and these have now been replaced with more robust equipment.
