Pavilion Gardens to stay open during all works
One of the High Peak’s favourite visitor attractions, Buxton’s Pavilion Gardens, is open for business whilst essential roof repair work takes place.
High Peak Borough Council is investing £1.2 million in repairs and improvement works at the Grade II listed complex. The programme is being delivered in two phases and focuses on protecting the historic buildings whilst improving facilities for visitors.
All parts of the site to remain open
The first phase includes roof repairs to the Pavilion Arts Centre and office area as well as the roofs above the retail units and café seating areas. Visitors to the historic Victorian complex will see scaffolding and contractors at work – but the activities and events, shopping, Gallery in the Gardens (art gallery) and hospitality available on site remain open as usual.
Upgrades to public toilets and conservatory roof
Phase two will concentrate on the conservatory roof sections and upgrades to public toilet facilities.
The work will safeguard this landmark building and enhance the amenities and experience for residents and visitors alike.
Councillor Damien Greenhalgh, Deputy Leader and Executive Councillor for Regeneration, Tourism and Leisure, said: “The Pavilion Gardens is one our most valued assets in the High Peak and one of our most cherished attractions for residents and visitors alike. This important investment is about protecting its historic character while ensuring it continues to offer a fantastic experience for generations to come.
“While the first phase of these essential works is underway, the Gardens remain very much open – so we encourage everyone to keep visiting, enjoy the events, shops and cafes, and love all this iconic destination has to offer.”
