Waterside started its life as Baldwin in 1972 when a group of local residents and children, cleared a disused factory site on Baldwin Terrace to make space for children to play. In 2009 the playground was rebuilt from scratch with the help of local children, and the redevelopment provided a lovely new building and several awards for innovation!
