The site is situated in The Priory Park (see location plan at Appendix 1). The site is owned by the Priory Charity and the site's footprint is circa 1900m2 in size and contractors will need to fit all features of the project within this location.

It is the intention to undertake a Design and Build contract for the works. The successful contractor will be responsible for finalising the design and delivering the construction stage of the project. This will involve several key deliverables including the submission a technical design, liaison with the Council & local community, ensuring a safe construction stage and warranting a smooth handover process.
