The proposed building would comprise new ticket sales offices and ticket windows, covered queuing areas, retail space, administrative offices, a security centre and other ancillary uses. The development will also see the creation of two high quality associated public spaces, enhancing the setting and access to existing heritage assets.
It would be sited to the north west of the new stadium, at the base of the access ramp to Lilywhite House.
The application is still subject to a further legal process, detailed design works and agreement with the leaseholder.
The ‘Paxton Building’ application represents the first phase of the Club’s commitment to invest in and restore the Northern Terrace, which is an historic terrace of Statutorily Listed and non-designated heritage assets between 790 and 814 High Road.
