Tyldesley Rugby Union Club

Tyldesley RUFC approached Club Design to initially look at advising on grant funding bids to improve existing facilities. However, the club’s old site accommodated only two pitches and the fabric of the clubhouse was beyond repair. Relocation was then considered as a more favourable option. After selling the site to a developer, Club Design achieved detailed consent on a greenbelt site and managed the construction of all the new facilities. The club is a regular venue for county and other representative fixtures.
