The Monkey Madness indoor play centre, located in the Essex town of Basildon, has reopened following brief closure due to suspected arson.

The soft play centre is said by Echo News to have suffered damage to the rear and interior aspects of the building, though the majority was "unaffected."
The company Facebook page made a post, which read: "Good morning everyone we are closed again today, we hope you all enjoy the sunshine."
Police are said to be investigating the cause of the fire, which was instigated by burning furniture near the building. It remains to be seen whether the fire was deliberate.
Monkey Madness has now been able to reopen to the public.
