We were very excited to be commissioned to design the new club house building for the Retford Lawn Tennis Club
The club was founded in 1891 and has occupied the current site for a number of years.
Located in the grounds of the grade II listed Trinity Hospital, the Tennis Club is set in an enviable and scenic position lying close to Retford Town Centre, and backing onto the Chesterfield Canal.
The new modern and spacious facilities at the Club House provides Changing Rooms, Kitchen and a Common Room. There is a veranda looking over the existing courts providing a sheltered viewing area. The building is clad with timber boarding over a brick plinth and covered with a low pitched slate hipped roof, although simply detailed, attention to detail is present with the tennis ball manifestations on the glass doors.
To minimise the visual impact on the wider site the new building has been located closer to the tennis courts, this in turn provides space to improve vehicular access to the site and structured parking.
