The 'Performance Pavilion' is a spectacular and elegant structure providing a covered performance space at a raised level to the surrounding recreation park with new landscaping and paths to improve access and enhance this dramatic amenity. It provides a facility for seasonal performance, music, drama, dance, shows, exhibitions, outdoor gym classes, cultural events, and is a permanent park shelter and meeting point. The pavilion structure has the geometry of an eight-metre square overlaid on an eight-metre diameter circle. The square roof arches in two directions, and the resulting shape is reminiscent of a leaping manta ray with two raised and two lowered corners. The raised convex curves of the pavilion create two natural focal points in opposite directions allowing directional performance either side.
