Additional information: The current Sports Pavilion, which contains the Bowling Clubhouse and Football Changing Rooms, is in disrepair and no longer fit for use, the Clubhouse is predominantly constructed using wood. There is no heating and windows don't open. There is no disabled access to the Bowling Clubhouse. To make changes to the existing Pavilion would be an inefficient use of resources since the main structure is nearing the end of its life.

The Existing Pavilion is an inefficient use of space. The Club Room and Kitchen are too small for the number of pitches on the Bowling Green and there are separate changing and toilet facilities for the Bowling Club and Football Club, the Bowling season being April to October and Football Season August to April. Since bowling and football don't take place every day, in the couple of months both clubs overlap there is the ability to schedule use of the new facility to avoid clashes.

The proposals involve building a brand new single storey Pavilion to cater for the sports which use the Park (i.e. Bowling, Football and Tennis). The location of the new building is between the Bowling Green, Tennis Courts and Recreation Field (to the rear of Shakespeare Drive). The building will make more efficient use of the floor space by providing a single clubroom, kitchen, changing room and storage facilities for all sporting teams using the park.

Once the new Pavilion is operational, the existing Pavilion, adjacent to the Tennis Courts and car park (to the rear of Avon Road) will be demolished and the Car Park extended. The surface will be replaced and parking spaces lined out. Provision will also be made for cycle rails to which cycles can be secured.

During the construction of the New Pavilion, demolition of the existing Pavilion and extension of the Car Park, a secure compound is to be located near the site of the new pavilion, which once completed will be used as a petanque pitch.

As part of the wider project the Town Council will be looking at improvements to the play area such as new safety surfaces and new play equipment, including the provision of Sensory Play Equipment, and tennis courts, perimeter fence, safety surface and nets (separate contract/tender).

The current timescales are for work to commence summer 2018 and to be completed by the end of 2019. Construction and delivery vehicles will be directed to and from Braunstone Lane via Shakespeare Drive. In the interests of the amenity of neighbouring properties, works on the site are to take place during the working week and during the day.
