New roof on Hub Terrace – Coming Soon!

Roofing over the Hub Terrace

The builders are starting work on the Hub Terrace on Friday 18th November, putting a weather-proof covering over the existing wooden structure. This means that the terrace will soon be a dry place to sit and enjoy food and drink from the Cafe. It also means that dog walkers will now not have to feel excluded from the Hub and can enjoy sitting on our dry terrace with their dogs.

It should be ready in a couple of weeks, weather permitting!
