Thesquare will be a public focus for the Cricket Club and willbe fronted by the new indoor cricket school. A(reinforced) glass front would promote Somerset cricketand create a more accessible sporting environment withinthe town centre. Whilst the focus is on the south bank,the new square will emphasise the bridge link between thenorth and south bank.
