Ladbroke Adventure Playground, Notting Hill
Boys playing with swords and shields at the Ladbrooke Adventure Playground in May 1961. Adventure playgrounds provided inner city children with creative spaces in which to play. Children could use junk materials to build and climb, or even use it as part of role play games as can be seen here. This playground opened in 1959 with a grant from the London County Council.
