St Peter's Playing Fields, Wallsend, could soon become home to a new sports hub. North Tyneside councillors have been advised by council officers to grant permission to the development.
The proposed hub will have a pavilion, club house, a multi-use community space and a new 3G football pitch on 6.8 hectares. The proposal has proved popular generating 162 public comments in favour, although 42 objections have been recorded.
Some residents feel the new hub could negatively impact the amenity of the area, disrupting locals as a result of flood lighting and noise.
