I was just cycling past the Powburn play area today and stopped to take a closer look. It’s looking particularly neat and tidy at the moment – thanks to the regular grass cutting by Northumberland County Council.

The trees close to the Pow Burn are in full blossom and so they really catch the eye.

The planters cared for by Hedgeley Women’s Institute are also showing a few blooms and it all helps to make the Powburn play area a great space for children and adults to enjoy.

If you want to see a few more pictures of the play area, it now features in the Directory of local businesses, groups and services. You can find it here.
