Parson’s Close Recreation Ground is the play area at the end of the magical Leighton-Linslade Children’s Trail.
If you visit, you will see that something magical has happened here. Storybook characters, and their belongings, have escaped from their books and hidden themselves around the town!
Leighton-Linslade The Play Area and Splash Pad Rushmere Country Park
We spent a magical morning following the Children’s Trail past old buildings, up winding mews and along busy streets.
You arrive at Parson’s Close Recreation Ground towards the end of the story trail.
The large playground has towers, slides, nets, swings and a huge multiplay. There is also a sandy play area
and a super splash pad with jets of water. 
If you would like to continue the story trail theme then visit Rushmere Country Park for some fairy tale fun in the forest.
