We'll, actually.... the opposite seems to be true.
I met with the venerable Dave R today, and he had read in detail a massive pack of documents, (which looked expensive to me), which outlined the process the planners had been through to reach this point.
I have to say that many designs have been proposed and discounted, many were terrible, but some were rather excellent and very much in keeping with the old pavilion building.
I find it amazing that the input of several responsible authorities can actually leave us with a construction much worse than the developer originally wanted to create!
Go and take a look, it's a real eye opener.
