Devonport Park Pavilion, Plymouth

 

Devon Contractors were engaged to complete the Bowling Pavilion in Devonport Park, Plymouth in the autumn of 2010.

 

The pavilion sits in the centre of Devonport Park, which remained open to the public throughout the construction operations. Access to the site had to be carefully controlled, as the groundsmens' accessways passed through playparks, gardens, seating areas and busy pedestrian routes.

 

labcThe building is supported on a steel platform that rests on screw-piled foundations that were carefully designed to accommodate the nearby trees and plantlife. The Pavilion maintains an air of comfortably nesting in the park thanks to irs timber cladding and suspended decking which wraps around an established oak tree, which provides a predominant feature in the publc seating areas.

 

This Project collected a Commendation in the Best Community Development Category of the South West Regional Building Excellence Awards 2011.
