Hovingham Children’s Playground
Hidden away at the back of Hovingham village, near to Ebor Way, is a child’s paradise. A well kept adventure playground with equipment for toddlers to teens - also picnic tables for all the family to enjoy.
The playground committee is hopeful of receiving some outside funding to help promote more activities but would welcome any new volunteers to the committee to help with the organization of activities and fundraising. If YOU can help, please contact me.

The playground is closed until further notice, due to fallen branches.
It is hoped that the playground will relocate to a safer ground, very soon!
