Browning Reserve is a large (6,029m²), well located reserve for residents south of Serpells Road and the families of Serpell and St. Charles Borromeo Primary Schools.
It provides a pedestrian link through to Glen Orchard Close and there is a bus stop outside the Reserve on Browning Drive. Upgraded in 2008, the reserve is well maintained with attractive landscaping, good visibility and a playspace. There are three other playspaces within a 400 metre radius.
Paths are in reasonable condition and are a mixture of asphalt and granitic sand. Additional low landscaping to the Glen Orchard Close pedestrian link would also improve its appearance, but in general this is a pleasant and functional reserve and a low priority for upgrade.
Browning Reserve Playground
Children will love exploring and playing at Browning Reserve. The 'bird hide' cubby has a slide and cargo net and views over the swings, rocker and see-saw. There is plenty of seating shaded from the large Eucalypt trees.
Suitable age group: 1 to 6 years

This urban oasis is the first of five plaza spaces to be implemented as a recommendation of the Open Space Strategy 2014, and has seen this unused area near the Doncaster Road entrance, transformed into a space that is inviting and safe.
