Youths have torched one of the play area swings at Coronation Park.
An LFRS officer at Ormskirk confirmed they used a disused wheelchair and blankets to start the fire.
"We have had numerous incidents over the last year within the park. In total 8 incidents mainly in the summer so it ties in with school holidays and most of the fires occurring in the evening.
"It’s a drain on our resources turning out to these unwanted needless fires where a more serious fire or accident could do with our assistance.
"It is also affecting WLBC property and there will be a financial impact to the council in replacing the swing," he added.
