Description:
This park has significant heritage value, with lovely old style sweeping lawns and well-established cold climate plants. Within are many heritage items including historic sandstone ANZAC memorial steps and old-style playground equipment. A major feature is the newly installed ‘Rocket’, inspired by the original Rocket play equipment that was installed in this park in the 1962. The park also embraces Blackheath Swimming Pool, the original form of which was built during the Great Depression in the 1930s. The modern version is still open in the warmer months. The park is opposite Council’s Blackheath Glen Tourist Park. This park has a wide range of play equipment, picnic tables, electric BBQs and shelters, public toilets, duck pond and a trackhead to nearby bushwalking.
