A piece of land in Woodley could soon be converted into a parkour area or skateboarding park but the council wants young people to put forward their own suggestions.

Woodley Town Council and Wokingham Borough Council are offering up a piece of land called Loddon Mead and an area next to it which is under the A3290 and by the River Loddon.

Representatives from groups which work with young people have formed The Community Youth Partnership which is exploring ideas on what the land could be used for.

Woodley Town Council clerk Deborah Mander said: "We are looking for all ideas and suggestions for the Loddon Mead area and the area underneath the A3290.

"We want to know what young people think, particularly young people in Years 6 and 7. They are the one who will grow and use it.

"We welcome all ideas and suggestions."

The area is around 60 by 70 metres but the space is split up by large concrete pillars. No buildings can be constructed and access to the A3290 must be maintained.

On Friday, April 8 staff from the Lower Earley branch of McDonald's in Chalfont Way helped clear weeds and other debris from the area.

It is also home to two impressive Star Wars murals.
