Public gym equipment in Muchall Park, Wolverhampton
Six pieces of outdoor exercise equipment for free public use have been placed in Muchall Park, Penn. Housing in Hinstock Close is beyond an avenue of large trees.

Outdoor "fitness trails" have been placed in six of the city's parks, as explained on the council website here: LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) Just in case anyone falls off or "overdoes it", the medical centre is less than two hundred metres to the west.

Money well spent to help counter the appalling obesity problem hereabouts? Or will most of the people using the equipment be those who already care about their health anyway? Vandals seem to have left these alone, somewhat to my surprise.
