Weymouth Play Areas
Weymouth Town Council manages 18 play areas that provide a range of fun, innovative and exciting equipment for all age groups.
Lodmoor Country Park and Louviers Road Play Area include green gym equipment suitable for adults. There is a free to use skate park at Louviers Road consisting of a quarter pipe, middle ramp, grind box, grind rail and half pipe. There is also a small skate park located at Radipole Park consisting of 2 quarter pipes, a ramp and a grind box. A state of the art pump-track is located at Wyke Regis Playing Fields.
The Marsh, Southill and Douglas Road Play Areas have recently been revamped with new, up to date play equipment. Pottery Lane and Elm Close have also benefitted from the installation of new pieces of play equipment. Where possible, the council aims to install a range of inclusive equipment with a wide variety of play functions.
