Plans for new play areas, a new entrance and garden have been approved by Wandsworth Council.

These pictures show the areas Battersea and Wandsworth residents can expect to see changes in the coming months and years after the plans were approved at the community services overview and scrutiny committee.

The changes are mostly funded by money Wandsworth Council made by hosting the Formula E event in 2015 and 2016, but there is also funding from developers, from the Friends of Battersea Park and from general funding in the council.

The plans were approved on July 5, but some people have since expressed frustration that the council did not publically consult on how to spend the money.

There was also frustration over the decision to spend some money on repairs to the river wall.

A spokesperson for Friends of Battersea Park said: "We feel betrayed. The money was promised as a sweetener for park improvements, not to be pinched and spent on maintenance.

"The repairs for the damaged wall should come from the council budget."

The council will spend £820,000 on the park, made up of £500,000 from Formula E, £250,000 from developers of the Battersea Wharf and Chelsea Bridge Wharf schemes and £30,000 from the Friends of Battersea Park amd £40,000 from existing budgets.

A playground will be built near La Gondola Cafe, a pedestrian entrance to Chelsea and Rosary Gates and turning unused parkland in the Promontory into a garden.

A playground would include £150,000 worth of play equipment for children up to the age of 12. 

A pedestrian entrance could be added between the Chelsea and Rosary gates, costing £100,000 with landscaping as well. 

Councillors agreed to put £160,000 aside for a cascade fountain feasibility study into their restoration and refurbishment, and £260,000 for river wall repairs. 

They agreed to spend £80,000 on restoring three historic seating shelters.

Disused land in the Promontory will be turned into a landscaped garden, based on designs by Leicester gardener David Keary, at a cost of £70,000.
