Active play at Corkagh.
Old sand and gravel surface prior to playground refurb. The playground is a popular spot with Corkaghs' younger visitors. It has been refurbished and reopened for December 2020. The sand/stone surface which was so hard to walk on is no more and the equipment has been updated to include a Zip line and mill inspired water play. During summer months and holidays there is usually an ice cream van parked nearby and there are plenty of tables for picnics. I have noticed, in recent years, that many savvy parents use the playground as a venue for children's birthday parties.

Mill inspired water play As you walk around the park you may notice small wooden signs marking the Maths Eye adventure. Click here to link to a fantastic activity sheet and trail for all the family.
