The site I have chosen for the Pavilion is in my own village Oxton, specifically the site of the village recreation ground. I have chosen this site due to it’s popularity with those who live in the village and visitors who come from surrounding areas. This is due to the open grass area which allows children to play and adults to play cricket. There is also a children’s play area and picnic benches. This site also brings people to it to enjoy the village fete and the yearly bonfire and fireworks show, which brings hundreds of people to the village. The car park of the village hall, which is located adjacent to the recreation ground, is often a meeting point for walkers, cyclists and conservation groups. The village hall itself holds numerous events from WI meetings to weddings to toy train enthusiasts conventions.
