A proposal for a sub-master plan intended to pave the way for a new-look play area at Wymondham's King's Head Meadow has been received by the town council.

And a council meeting planned for Tuesday, July 4 has been cancelled to allow time for the plans to be reviewed, and discussed with Wymondham Town Football Club, which leases the meadow.

At a meeting led by mayor Robert Savage on June 6 the council voted by a margin of seven votes to six to adopt a proposal from Play England's Phil Doyle and Bernard Spiegal to create the plan, as a first step towards developing the meadow's play area.

Trevor Gurney, town clerk, said in a statement about the cancellation: 'At present, there is very little business to be conducted other than the normal housekeeping requirements.

'It is likely that the initial design brief will need to be reviewed in scope before it is presented to the council for discussion.

'In the circumstances with the agreement of Cllr Savage the meeting scheduled for Tuesday 4th July 2017 has been cancelled.'
