Refurbishment Plans
     Peel Investments have applied for planning permission to extend the existing Cineworld cinema along the canal bank of the Peel Centre. Designed by Dyer of Cheltenham, the plans include converting an existing auditorium into an enlarged entrance lobby, building four new auditoriums (bringing the total to nine) and improving the seating arrangements. The external appearance of the building will be enhanced by cladding with modern materials, and the canalside frontage will be landscaped.
     The proposal also includes the provision of four cafe/bar units at the south end of the extended cinema with direct access from the canalside. (App Ref 08/01116)

Progress
     The plans were approved by the Planning Committee in Nov 2008, and the work should be completed in summer 2009.
