A new play-area is to be built in Maple Cross after council chiefs approved plans.

The play-area will be built at the Hornhill Recreation Ground in Chalfont Road after Three Rivers District Council approved plans at Thursday night’s planning committee meeting.

The proposals include seven pieces of play equipment and these include a slide, zip wire, swing, trampoline and toddler swings.

Planning chiefs have insisted the play-area should be built within three years.
