City council revises plans for new pavilion at North Walls Rec in Winchester

PLANS for a new pavilion on a Winchester park have been scaled back because of the costs. Community campaigners have been pressing for a new cricket pavilion at North Walls park for five years and planning permission has been agreed. But the city council says the current plans are £100,000 over budget. It has committed £595,000 and the community campaigners have raised another £214,000. Strategic director Richard Botham told the town forum: Tenders have been above estimates. The costs remain well in advance of our budget. We are not in a position to proceed with the tender. We recognise the need to replace the pavilion and it is a priority of the city council to do that.

Civic chiefs express support for community pavilion plans at North Walls Rec

PLANS for a new sports pavilion part paid for by community fundraising appears to be back on track. Residents in Hyde in Winchester had been furious when the city council said it was reviewing the Hyde Pavilion scheme because costs were climbing above budget. Fundraisers had raised more than £200,000 toward the £800,000 of replacement building at North Walls Recreation Ground. But all tenders received were at least £150,000 over budget. The Town Forum, comprising city councillors representing the city wards, agreed to support proposals to amend the design/specification for the pavilion and keep it within budget. It reaffirmed its commitment to the scheme and that the £595,000 funding approved in January 2020 is still available.

Pavilion Project will not be axed by Winchester City Council

THE Pavilion Project will not be axed by Winchester City Council, its leader has insisted. Uncertainty surrounded the future of the scheme after the council declared it would be reviewing its budget in December in the light of the collapse in income caused by coronavirus. Cllr Lucille Thompson has claimed that chiefs are working closely with the Pavilion Project community group to ensure the hub at North Walls Recreation Ground is replaced. She said that the council’s pledged funding of £595,000 remains available. But she added that the plans may be ‘brought into scale’ of the council’s budget for 2021/22, which is likely to be £3.7million less than 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
