  • Changes to Needham Street Car Park

    Work is planned to commence week commencing 20 May 2019 which will last for approximately 2 weeks. There will be some disruption and reduction in the number of spaces available whilst the work is taking place. During the 2nd week there may be a full closure whilst resurfacing and relining work takes place.

    The work is in response to the planning permission received by the Horse and Plough for a small outside area and barrel storage facility. This will take up 2 parking places within the existing car park boundary. To mitigate the reduction in spaces, the layout of the car park will change and the overall size will increase slightly. So the works once completed, will not be to the detriment of the number of car parking spaces.
