In December 2012 Carrickfergus Borough Council opened it's new state of the art play park located in Marine Gardens. Part of an overall investment in the gardens of £1.3 million, the new play park is segmented into sections for toddlers, juniors and seniors, ensuring that there is good quality outdoor fun for all to enjoy. The impressive centre piece is a galleon ship reaching a height of over 30 feet and which can be found in the senior nautical adventure area. The galleon called Result, is named after the very last ship to have been built in Carrickfergus in 1893.
