As well as picnic benches and other seating the area has been landscaped as a garden area. Because it is close to a car park it is a convenient place for visitors to the town to use.

The Rotary Club won an environmental award for the work they did on landscaping the park because the design is wheelchair friendly and the benches are made from recycled plastic.
