Could this dome be coming to Bognor Regis?

Deputy chairman Hugh Coster said the plans offer an alternative to the controversial Pavilion Park plans submitted by Arun District Council which town councillors and members of the public have criticised.

"The Bognor Regis Pavilion will be a landmark building — worth coming to see in its own right. Current anti-social behaviour problems will be replaced by the hustle and bustle of a popular destination.

Hothampton would be the preferred site, according to the society, and would be near the location of the original Pavilion, which the society said will help in 'reconnecting with the towns heritage'.

Uses for the dome could include an ice rink, for roller skating, an art gallery, comedy venue, live music venue, for beer festivals, literary festivals and more, according to the plans, which have been costed at about £1.4million excluding VAT but could change as further decisions and consultations take place.
