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.
