Plans for Proposed New Memorial Hall

This page gives access to the Plans and the Design & Access statement for the proposed new Memorial Hall buildings on the existing site.  They were submitted to the Peak District National Park Authority's Planning Service, who registered their receipt on 2nd July 2008 (ref.
