A future mixed-use town centre development scheme utilising the existing Octagon Theatre and Penn Hill Park as a catalyst for regeneration.
Specific consideration will be given to the development of a themed regeneration around the arts and creative media sectors.
As part of a wider regeneration scheme consideration will also be given to the decking of Petters Way car park.
In 2007 South Somerset District Council commissioned a feasibility appraisal to assess the future options to develop and enhance the Octagon Theatre, which is the largest theatre in Somerset.
Findings from this study indicate the benefits of creating a new studio theatre, exhibition gallery, studios and meeting function rooms.
Anticipated improvements include:
- a future mixed-use development, which will revitalise an important town centre site
- much of land already in public ownership enabling future re-development opportunities
- enhanced links to existing assets such as the Octagon Theatre and Penn Hill Park
- additional car-parking spaces close to town centre.
