The Regal, Wallingford, Oxfordshire - feasibility review

Descriptions

The building is The Regal Centre, Goldsmith's Lane, Wallingford, OX10 0DN. The Regal was constructed in 1933 as a cinema and ceased to operate in that capacity in 1973. It was then bought by the Town Council and converted into a community and indoor sports centre. The centre was closed in 2017 for health and safety reasons and has remained close since. The aspiration has been to develop the site into a multi-purpose space for the community's benefit.
