William Penn Sports Hall, Rickmansworth

Jan 1996

SPACE & PLACE was appointed to design the extension and re-development of the existing 20m swimming pool in Rickmansworth.

The re-design added a 4 court sports hall, 2 squash courts, fitness gym, 2 studios, Health Spa, soft play area, dry changing and cafe as well as a full refurbishment of existing wet changing rooms.

The majority of the building is clad in western red cedar boarding and galvanized steel structural framework, and was constructed by Bowmer & Kirkland.

This was one of the first Sport England funded projects due to the creation of the National lottery and funding for such projects.
