The Quarry Pavilion Modernisation Project board have proposed to submit the revised design of the Quarry Pavilion to the planning application phase. The revised design takes into account the feedback received during the consultation including a public meeting held on 31st March 2015. The new pavilion will now utilise the majority of the existing footprint in order to reduce the loss of green space. The facilities at the new pavilion will meet Sport England guidelines.

Full report on the public consultation and the revised design plan can be found on the following link: http://consultation.oxford.gov.uk/consult.ti/Quarry/consultationHome

A full planning application will be submitted and again open to public consultation.

Labour councillors for Quarry & Risinghurst ward are pleased at the news. Cllr Chewe Munkonge said “I can’t wait to see a new pavilion, the current pavilion is not fit for purpose.”

Cllr Dee Sinclair said “I am pleased the project is moving into the planning application phase, I want to see the builders on site soon so we can get a brand new, top class facility for Quarry.”

Cllr Chewe Munkonge is organizing a trip to Grandpont pavilion which is a similar design to the proposed one for Quarry, if interested please contact him on 07825 283858 or write to him on cllrcmunkonge@oxford.gov.uk
