As architect of Stadium for Bath, Kay Elliott has worked alongside the club and key stakeholders to develop a proposal that will deliver an exceptional, fit for purpose and modern home for Bath Rugby at the Recreation Ground, the spiritual home of the rugby club for over 125 years.

The revised designs build on the original submission and address key stakeholder feedback, reducing visual impact of the proposals from key vantage points within the city. The plans also include the regeneration of the riverside in the heart of the city, the creation of significant sporting and community benefits, whilst ensuring that the Club continues to provide a considerable contribution to the city’s economy for decades to come.

Key highlights of the application include:

  • 18,000 capacity stadium with significantly enhanced accessibility provisions

  • Contemporary and sensitive design

  • New hybrid pitch increasing community and amateur use

  • Regenerated riverside including the new Spring Gardens Walk

  • Retention of mature trees, as well as further landscaping and bio-diversity measures

  • A host of sustainability measures to support a target of net zero operational carbon
