- existing arts centre needed a significant upgrade incorporating a facelift for the building and provision of new external paved and planted areas
- the landscape proposals integrate the scheme with the town centre and include new outdoor sheltered pavement café facilities
- the project has given the centre a new lease of life and enabled a wider range of events to be staged in a more attractive setting
- new style of paving, street furniture and planting gives the area a contemporary townscape look with a very distinct character
