Irchester Country park also boasts a new children's play area which has been designed to reflect the park's quarry theme with sand play equipment, a digger and trains as well as fencing around the outside to ensure it is a safe place for children of all ages to play. The play area has been funded with the support of an East Midlands Development Agency grant administered by Northamptonshire Enterprise Ltd and forms part of a larger scheme that will also see the opening of a new café at the park later in the year.
