Reviews of Kensington Oval
"Big field, small car park with usually packed street parking. Lots of space for both dogs and sports."
"Nice park. Plenty of open space and gated oval. Children's park with plenty equipment to use and the basketball court for older children to utilise. Shades if you want to stay out of the sun. Just family friendly and ready to be enjoyed"
"Very decent grassy ground. Good for a nice run and fun activities."
"Good small park. Good for shirt runs and lot of dogs walking around"
"Nice park with something for everyone such as walking track, children's playground, gym equipment, shaded park benches and toilets in main pavilion. However, the ground outfield was very slow and uneven in places. Turf on field is more suited for footy."
