To get to North Moreton: drive passed Tesco, take the second turning on the right (Long Wittenham Road) towards the Moretons. Turn right onto the High Street (you will see the church in front of you but don't drive passed it, turn right). The award winning pub The Bear Inn is on your left. The park is along Bear Lane, a little bit further on the left hand side. You can park outside the gate or along the verge. At the end of the lane there is a caravan park.
Find this park on the google map I made for you.
The recreation ground is as lovely as the rest of the village.
Lovely big recreation ground - this is just a fraction.
Balancing equipment.
Really nice park.
The only park I have seen with a table tennis table.
Climbing frame with lots of monkey bars.
A hampster wheel! I've never seen one of these before. The kids thought it was novel!
Slide - probably not suitable for small ones - the gaps between the rungs are a bit wide.
The biggest merry go round I have ever seen.
It was a bit chilly the day we visited, so we only stayed for an hour. However, I think we will go back - it's a very nice park. Lots and lots of shade, almost everything your children could want. Also, very close to the pub, so definitely worth an extended visit.
The pub is the Bear at Home Inn and the landlord and lady allow children to use their w/c.

There is no school or shop in North Moreton, but it does have some spectacularly old stained glass - some is so old is bears the scars from the Reformation, with facial details scrubbed out. Very sad.
