Strange it is no where near the brow of a hill, the brow would be up near the Shoulder of Mutton

Like I said I think it is now too small and its location allows it to be extended. It is highly visible which is so people in the area can see if there is any trouble happening. As far as I know we don't have any serious problems occur in the area which could be down to location. The old site really was tucked out of the way. If a child fell and hurt them self they could lay on the floor unnoticed for ages.
For a similar reason the youth shelters are never enclosed on all sides. The site of the old tennis/basketball court is very poor as well. No one passes by unless they are going to that area. An injured person could be there for hours.
The bid includes moving pets corner to where the basket ball court is. This would reduce the isolation issue because Pets Corner is a busy area when open. Once locked up at night it would then be a quiet area for the animals.
