    A fantastic park for all ages, lovingly looked after by local residents. Our toddler loves the playground here and we’ve really enjoyed attending the many local talks organised by the local Wray crescent garden community.

    A nice spot to spend some time in, incorporating a cricket area, basketball court, children's play section and a good amount of grass area to stroll through. On each of the times I have visited, it has been fairly quiet but is possibly more busy during the holidays and weekends. The play section consists of swings for toddlers and older children, sandpit area with slide, rockers, climbing frames, table tennis and more. Most of the equipment is stood on all weather ground that is surrounded by grass. There is seating dotted around and some are set up as picnic spots with tables to eat. There also appears to be toilet facilities, though I did not use them or know when they are open for use. Overall a pleasant space.

    Wray Crescent is a beautiful peaceful green space a few minutes walk from Stroud Green, enjoyed by many residents of all ages (kids, families and the senior community). Shaded playground with a clean toilet and park warden. Playground could do with an update from the council. Outside the playground there is a great space for dogs and a lovely community vegetable garden. On the large grassy area you can often find family picnics and birthdays, women’s and men’s football, cricket and kite flying!

    This is a lovely little park with a cricket pitch, children's playground and community garden. It's much-loved and well looked-after by the local residents. A great place for children to play outside. When the cricket pitch is not in use, it's also a good picnic spot.

    A good playground for children and I like how the guy comes out of his little hut to sweep the sandpit. Could do with more benches and tables for summer though I reckon.

    It's OK. I guess but when you go there with your dog there are no fenced areas for them, so they have to have good recall. Otherwise they're at risk of running off.
