Work is well and truly underway on the forest’s brand new visitor centre which will include a new café, improved toilet facilities and a much larger car park.
The new wooden-framed visitor welcome building which opens later this year will feature outdoor seating and toilets that include a “Changing Places” facility for people who are unable to use standard toilets.
Sustainability is at the forefront of all the building designs, with features including solar panels, a ground source heat pump, a sustainable drainage design and rainwater harvesting coupled with the latest LED lighting and low energy products this will see this Delamere facility benefit for many years to come along with minimising the impact on the environment.
