Village Playing Field


East Brent Village Playing Field

The East Brent Village Playing Field, often known as the Village Green, opposite Church Road is owned and maintained by Sedgemoor District Council.

This area on Brent Road was back in the early 1990’s still part of the farm land around Red House Farm. The original farm house stands today to the rear of the green.
Then in the mid 90’s Red House Farm sold an amount of surrounding farm land for the Red House Road housing development and as part of the development what is now the Village Playing Field was formed.
It has both an open area which is used for events and has some football posts, there is also an enclosed section with swings and other children's' play equipment.

Various events, such as Fetes and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee have been held on the green.

The Parish Council are aware of the benefits that a good outside area can offer to both children playing and for community events. Therefore, the Council continue to explore how the Village Green can be improved.


Joseph's Pound Playing Field


The Joseph's Pound Playing field and Play Area was opened in July 2016 for the benefit of all of the children of the parish. 

The new play area includes an inclusive basket swing, one flat swing for juniors, one cradle swing for toddlers, a four-child see-saw, buggy springy and inclusive dish roundabout.

The Play Area was created with the support and cooperation of Sedgmoor District Council, East Brent Parish Council, and the Rooksbridge Community.

The Play Area is managed by the Parish Council and day to day responsibility rests with the Play Area sub committee
