Two play parks in Braes villages have been transformed with equipment that not only encourages sliding, climbing, balancing, spinning and swinging but also pays tribute to the area's industrial heritage.
While the coronavirus pandemic meant that an official opening could not be held for any of the new facilities, the new play equipment is now well used from early morning till evening, to the delight of the members of the community who came together to make it happen.
The Avonbridge and Standburn Recreational Initiative (ASRI) in 2017 was formed after a community consultation plan identified just how badly the playparks in each village needed to be improved.
