Sadly, when recommissioning the splash pad in our Bakewell Recreation Ground the contractor discovered a couple of repairs that are needed.

Due to the repairs, the facility will not be able to re-open for at least another week, depending on the parts delivery timescales.

Council apologised for the inconvenience caused.
