The Old Pavilion has been a part of the Club for over 100 years and has witnessed some of the greatest players of all time take to the hallowed turf. However, the much loved building has come to the end of its natural life and work on the new Somerset Pavilion begins next week.
Once completed the new development will bring the County Ground up to the technical specification required to host one-day International cricket. It's hoped that part of the pavilion will be ready for use during the closing stages of the 2015 season with the entire facility fully opened for use from the beginning of the 2016 campaign.
The new facility will comprise high-quality covered seating behind the bowlers arm, alongside a large bar and entertainment area, high-quality corporate/media facilities and a magnificent roof top viewing area.
Marking the occasion, an event will be held in front of the Old Pavilion 30 minutes after the conclusion of the current LV= County Championship match against Middlesex in order to give people the chance to say farewell to the building.
The ceremony shall see Chief Executive Guy Lavender, President Roy Kerslake and Club Chaplain Rob Walrond all recall their memories of the Old Pavilion and outline what the future development will provide.
