These recently taken pictures show the current stay of play down at the Donkey Park play area in Brigg.
Regular Brigg Blog followers will recall that North Lincolnshire Council reported delays in the refurbishment, relating to drainage.
Council notices - still pinned to the metal fencing - say work starting during October 2016 was expected to be completed during November.
However, as this picture shows, there's still a good deal left to be done.
Hopefully, by the time spring and the warmer weather arrives, local children will be able to enjoy the new equipment provided for them.
The park is near the Lidl store, between Atherton Way and Almond Grove.
If you are wondering about the name, it's historic. There used to be donkeys kept in this part of the town decades ago - long before the A18 was re-routed along Barnard Avenue.
The Donkey Field was then a rather quiet location on the edge of the Newlands housing estate.
