Blackburn
The existing Community Hall was accommodated in the old Leys Hall which was demolished and the proceeds from the sale of the site for residential development used towards building a new community hall on an alternative site in Blackburn.
The building includes a main hall, smaller two multi-purpose halls, a gym, kitchen and toilet / changing facilities. The hall is well used by the playgroup, church, dance groups, bowling club etc.
The hall was designed with a contemporary aluminium wave roof profile to maximise the height available internally for the Games Hall but reduce to a more human scale along the Street edge. This also ties in well with the steeply climbing levels of the adjacent residential development.
