Read more about this location
Duxbury Library Playground, also known locally as Ellison Playground and Grafton Toddler Park, is a spacious public play area next to the library. It offers separate play options for younger and older children, including swings, slides, tunnels, climbing structures, and springy bouncing equipment. The layout is fenced, which helps for easier supervision, and the library setting makes it feel especially useful for low-key family outings. Public details do not clearly document full ADA access, so it is better treated as family-friendly and moderately accessible rather than a fully verified all-abilities site.
