What shall we do with the Hutton Close space? - Newbury Town Council

Newbury residents are being asked for their ideas about what to do with a piece of council-owned open space.

Newbury Town Council owns and maintains the 2.6-acre open space at Hutton Close

It was used by David Wilson Homes Southern as a temporary construction compound while building the adjoining housing at Hutton Close.

The land has remained largely an open space for a number of years and used mainly for dog walking.

There are two small goalposts at the centre which are occasionally used by local young children.

“We would like your opinion on the use of the open space going forward and how it could be

improved,” said town council leader Martin Colston (Lib Dem, West Fields).

"We are sending letters directly to residents in the surrounding area so I would encourage anyone who uses the area or lives nearby to have their say and get involved”.
