A huge new sports facility in Patchway has been completed at Norman Scott Park, replacing the previous run down facilities on the site. The new development includes an all weather training pitch, new cricket nets and a new pavilion and café.
South Gloucestershire Council said that the new facilities, partly funded by developer contributions, include the Jason Franklin 3G facility (an all-weather training pitch) and Twin Lane cricket nets to help budding and more experienced players hone their skills. There is also a new pavilion which includes six changing rooms and café called Snack Attacks.
The council helped fund the sports redevelopment by providing £776,460 of Section 106 funding secured from developers. A further £800,000 was provided by Patchway Town Council and £50,000 contributed by Sport England.
