Ealing Trailfinders
Client: Trailfinders Sports Club
Section: Leisure
Location: Ealing, London
Planning Authority: Borough of Ealing Council
Description: Sports pavilion


Project Overview
The proposals provide an indoor artificial surface for use by rugby and football clubs that include Ealing Trailfinders Rugby Club, Ealing Trailfinders Amateur Rugby Club, London Broncos Rugby League Club, Pittshanger FC and Hanwell Town FC. A three building provides a three-lane indoor cricket net facility for Ealing Trailfinders Cricket Club, changing rooms and other ancillary space such as a small office and storage.
Our Role
We prepared a pre-application and planning application on behalf of the clients and successfully negotiated with officers to secure permission for the scheme. The site lay within Metropolitan Open Land which is similar to a Green Belt designation, therefore it was important to ensure the openness of the area was retained as far as practically possible.
