PLANS for a £40,000 revamp of play area, which last year appeared under threat of closure, will be on display next week.

Marlow Town Council has now taken on the lease for Marlow's Riley Recreation Ground following negotiations with The Riley Park Trust.

Sainsbury's, which is set to open its redeveloped store this month in West Street, has donated £40,000 for the new equipment.

The park backs onto the supermarket site.

Council spokesman Katherine Joy said: “Anyone interested in shaping this new play area is most welcome to come along and share their views.”

Proposals for new equipment and designs will be on display and officers and Councillors will be in attendance.

It will be held at St Peter’s Catholic Primary School, Prospect Road, Marlow from 3.15pm to 4.45pm.
