Drybridge Play Area
The Town Council provides this well used area for younger children situated near Overmonnow Primary School.
A safety inspection check is carried out on a weekly basis on the equipment of the play area at Drybridge Park. Any rubbish is collected and removed from the site, trees, fencing and gate are inspected and the play area is inspected for any debris or defects in the surface, especially under or close to the play equipment to keep it safe for children.

Dixton Field
Also known as the Town Field this is the only land MTC has ownership of. It is a large riverside area for walking along the river towards the Dixton Church and is also available for other outside events bookable through the Town Clerk. The Rotary Fireworks display usually takes place at the Town Field.
The Town Field is inspected and maintained, including mowing
the grass during the spring and summer months (14 cuts pa) and before
pre-arranged use by other organisations within the community.
The town’s benches are inspected for good condition and safety, monthly in summer, and bi-monthly in winter. The footpaths are inspected for any signs of deterioration or poor repair monthly.
The lifebelt is inspected at the riverside area on a weekly basis and is replaced when necessary. The riverbank adjacent to the field is cut back when necessary.

Town Council to ensure the Town is kept neat and tidy. Monmouth Town Council liaises with the local litter group who
