Common Moor

It used to have a playground but it was closed around 2005 and the equipment moved to Upton Cross. It was closed was due to the fact that no one could really supervise the children playing thus it was in breach of health and safety regulations.

With it being within the old borders of the defunct Caradon District Council it has some signs around the village with the council's name and logo on it they are mostly located within the Brake.
