## About this tender

Watton Town Council is seeking a suitably qualified and experienced Contractor to design and deliver new playground & sports equipment and associated surfacing.

Having received contributions specifically for the site, along with additional funds from the Council, Lovell Gardens Play Area is a well-used, albeit dated facility that does require investment.

The focus is to improve the practical aspects of the area, mainly with seating, and replacing some of the older items, while introducing new play experiences. There are some large mature trees at the Southern End, which the Council would prefer to ensure new equipment is placed away from this area other than the Picnic Tables.

The Goal Ends are popular however they require replacing in addition to a new hard surface around the goal mouths to reduce wear and improve the use, particularly for Basketball.

## CPV classification

Roundabouts, swings, shooting galleries and other fairground amusements
