Play area opened with 'fastest zip wire in Derby'
A new play area designed with the help of residents has thrown open its gates at a Derby park. An open day was held to celebrate the new facility for youngsters at Brunswood Park in Spondon on Saturday. Features include a climbing frame and slide, roundabout, swings, and "the fastest zip wire in Derby", according to Derby City Council. A spokesperson for the council thanked "everyone who shared ideas and helped shape" the new "wonderful space". More than £72,000 was given to Spondon from a developer to improve parks in the area, after homes were built on the former Technograv factory site in Nottingham Road, while Friends of Spondon Parks raised a further £20,000 to redevelop the park.
