A Kenilworth park has been given a much-needed makeover some five years after the project was due to begin.

Glendale Avenue Park has reopened after three weeks of work on site which has seen new play equipment and benches installed.

Works to the park were due to be completed in 2019, but the project has continually been hit by delays.

"The new equipment is installed and available for use by young families," Cllr Dickson said on social media.
