We have recently obtained planning permission (see full text of permission letter - 83K PDF file) for a new pavilion. We should soon be able to apply for planning permission for improvements to the Parish Hall now that we have reached an agreement to sell the adjacent plot. CASCA is to consider taking over management of the Hall at its AGM on 7 January 1998.
We on the Parish Council are doing our best to keep parishioners informed of our plans and progress, and it is with that in mind that I have gathered this set of web pages together.
Recent developments on the Pavilion
And on the CASCA/Parish Hall Project
Following the elections in May 2000 the new pavilion subcommittee is re-examining alternative pavilion designs, location and funding with a view to firming up several options for wider discussion.
Like all Parish Council subcommittees, the new pavilion subcommittee's meetings have been opened to the public.
After several months listening to all shades of opinion, a consensus emerged which was it seemed was acceptable to all who had attended the meetings.
The agreement was for a block built timber clad building of attractive style situated at the eastern boundary of the field with a car park on the "return land".
Paul Murray's offer to convene and chair a Pavilion Building Committee was accepted by the council who gave him a mandate to proceed. See the subcommittee reports for monthly updates on the pavilion project or check the noticeboards for dates of the subcommittee meetings.
The Sport England Lottery Grant application has been submitted and we must now wait for about 16 weeks to hear whether we have been successful.
