Have Your Say on the New Bathampton Village Playground – Community Consultation Now Open

The Parish Council is pleased to share that plans are progressing for the refurbishment of the Bathampton village playground, and we are now inviting the community to take part in a consultation on the proposed designs.

We are currently considering five design options, and this consultation is about helping to refine and shape the preferred design. Your feedback will help us understand which layouts and ideas work best for the community and guide the final design development.
