The Bandstand

Throughout the consultation one of the key words you identified which summarised the character of Roberts Park was MUSIC. A major element of the restoration scheme, therefore, will be to reinstate a bandstand on the site of the original structure. This will be no ordinary bandstand, however, but will be a piece of art in the heart of the Park.

In the design we hope to incorporate the alpaca, the wool of which made Titus Salt his money, and even the Bradford boar! Two of the trees in the park near to the bandstand will also be lit to give depth to the lighting display. The horseshoe shaped lawn overlooking the bandstand will be terraced to provide a perfect viewing point for the many fantastic concerts, events and community activities in the future.
