Derry City and Strabane District Council has approved plans to upgrade and extend the play facilities at Cluny Gardens in Clady, Tyrone.

Local residents have requested improvements to the existing play area for some time. The current site holds a small set of play equipment and open space that falls short of modern standards.

Council planning committee members supported the project without opposition at their most recent meeting. The approval covers new play equipment along with landscaping additions.

A planning report describes Cluny Gardens as a longstanding community facility in central Clady. Community feedback pointed to the outdated equipment and its limited use.

The upgrade aims to expand the site's scale and improve its recreational role in the village.
