Dear Holly,
Information not held. The City (Parish) Council do not own or manage any such assets.
May I suggest that you direct your enquiry to Chichester District Council ? The other 66 Parishes in Chichester District may well have play areas and equipment, their contact details re on the CDC website - unless, of course, you have written to them direct.
Best wishes,
Rodney Duggua
