A 'showstopper' is coming to a Macclesfield park.

Macclesfield Town Council and Cheshire East Council have come together for a project to improve West Park.

A huge new piece of play equipment is set to be installed, with the public asked to vote for which option they would like to see.

A post on the town council's social media reads: "Macclesfield Town Council and Cheshire East Council have teamed up to bring a showstopping new piece of play equipment to West Park to replace one of the old pieces of equipment which is coming to the end of its life and needs replacing – and you get to help choose it!

"There are two amazing options, and we want you and your kids to have your say.

"Show them the choices, ask which one they love most, and cast your vote to shape the future of play in our town!"

Check out the two options below before heading to the Macclesfield Town Council website to vote.

Option A

Option A is the 'Dome Unit'.

Elements, of which there are 55, include a hammock, a climbing net, a tube slide and dragon scales.

Option B

Option B is the 'Giant XL'.

Spread over eight levels, this piece involves 45 elements including climbing walls, a fireman's pole and an 'extreme' tube slide.
