East Devon District Council’s planning committee in March gave the go-ahead for a new and free dinosaur-themed play space on Queen’s Drive.
The existing boating ponds on the site will be filled in and the old boating lake will become part of the temporary food and drink space with timber walkways/seating.
East Devon District Council have shared photos of the work they have been doing infilling the ponds at Queen’s Drive.
The approved application will see the former Fun Park be turned into three zones. A food and drink area which would form an outside bar and seating area with temporary retail/catering stalls, a children’s play area with associated equipment and an events space that would host a number of outside events organised by a dedicated events manager, that includes a big screen.
East Devon District Council have said that they hope to have the first attractions to be in place by the Spring Bank Holiday of May 26.
Councillors approved the installation of the range of temporary attractions on the Queen’s Drive development site by eight votes to four.
