This unused playground always makes me sad. There was proper equipment to play on when I was small, like a seesaw and roundabout, replaced with more 90's style in the middle of the decade. It was all ripped out about 10 years ago due to vandalism and the flat residents complaining about the noise (pah). 
The local council are due to put an 'outdoor gym' within but knowing the youths round here it won't last the week without being taged and wrecked.
