Wasn't able to get any pictures of the park as it was pretty busy and I didn't want to be seen as that random person taking pictures of random people in the park...
The park itself is small. There's the part of the park where children can play in (jungle gym/swings etc), and the rest of the park is I guess for people to chill in and chat.

This place has recently had a facelift... There's a splash pad... There's swings and playground structures... There's a piano for anyone to play (just cover it up after you're done). There are public bathrooms that are open... There's an exercise area with chin up bars for adults... It's next to Kensington market so there are a lot of things to do there...
