An £80,000 playground was unveiled last Friday in Woolpit.
The park, off Church Street, includes a new climbing frame, zip-wire and floor trampoline.
Ian Belham, chairman of the playground trustees, said: “It is really important, we have got several families who can’t get to any other villages because they haven’t got transport. We haven’t had a playground for two years.”
Ian Lavender, former Dad’s Army TV actor, who lives in the village, was invited to cut the tape.
Children from Woolpit Primary School entered a competition to help design the play-area.
Funds were raised from the Woolpit Poorsland charity, National Lottery fund, the parish council, local businesses and the community.
