  In the first instance, the play equipment was taken away because there hadn't been any investment by the local authority and so it was deemed unsafe by the Council's insurers and so it was all taken away.
  
  It was later assessed to see if it could be re-introduced, but by this time the DDA (Disabled Discrimination Act) had come into force and it was then deemed that disabled people could not easily gain access to the play area.
  
  There is also (now) concern at the access points on every side of what was the play area, making it easy for anyone to walk in and do something untoward with or to, a child.
  
  I agree that it should be the responsibility of parents, but nowadays, parents have (more or less) the opposite view.
