LeylandCabinet member for finance, property and assets Matthew Tomlinson told the meeting at which the improvements were given the go-ahead that some of the planned work was “vitally needed”.
Reconstruction and widening of existing paths and driveways between North Lodge and Worden Hall and those running south from the hall to the Swiss Lodge. A 1940s rose garden will be removed and returned to the original design a century earlier of landscaped grass and trees. That decision was taken as a result of disease and fungus build-up in the soil preventing the flowers from thriving.
The toilet block currently located at the central crossroads will be shifted to what the council describes as a “less prominent” site alongside the entrance to the overflow and main car parks.Paths re-dressed in the main car park and additional bollards installed to match those near the Worden Lane entrance.
