It is located in close proximity to Workington Town Centre and provides a valuable link between the retail core of the town to nearby housing areas, the Port of Workington, the River Derwent and sport, recreation and leisure facilities in Workington. The Derwent Valley Regeneration Area is defined on the plan at Figure 1. 1.2 This area has been identified as key in terms of its present role and its future potential for regeneration to deliver a range of complimentary recreation, leisure and commercial benefits to the town and its communities. 1.3 The Derwent Valley Regeneration Area Supplementary Planning Document will guide the future regeneration of this area, in terms of setting out a clear vision for the land uses in the area, a planning policy framework and will then be used as a strategic document to guide the development and realisation of the regeneration of this area.

  • Volume 3 No.3
    The Speedway Researcher Promoting Research into the History of Speedway and Dirt Track Racing Volume No.3 . No. 3 December 2000 Subscribers : 191 WAS JACK PARKER THE FIRST WORLD CHAMPION ? Many fans of Jack Parker considered him to be the greatest rider never to win a World Championship. However, Jack did win the event that was billed as the World Championship in 1931, an event that the powers that be refused to endorse after it was completed. We are indebted to Don Gray for his article on this previous ly poorly recorded competition. Do Jack’s efforts merit recognition, albeit 70 years almost after the event ? Don is convinced of Jack’s claim to the title. The First World Championship Competition During 1930 Vic Huxley had been so successful that, at the start of 1931, members of the Promoters Association declared him to be the best in the world. However, there were one or two dissenters from this view. Norman H. Pritchard, the editor of “Speedway News” and manager of the Australian Test Team, was of the opinion that Tommy Benstead, a New South Wales rider, who never left Australia, was capable of beating anyone. It so happened that Colin Watson of England started off the 1931 season in brilliant form and the Southern League promoters decided that he should engage in a series of match races as challenger to Huxley for the “best rider” accolade, the winner to be considered the World’s undisputed champion. On Whitsun Bank Holiday Monday afternoon, 25th May, Huxley beat Watson by two runs to nil at West Ham.

Our shared aspiration is to create a compelling beacon for civic pride: that excites, enthuses and serves the community and in so doing, generates sporting ambition and inspiration. The Stadium will replace Derwent Park and Borough Park respectively as the home for Workington Town RLFC and Workington Reds AFC with a development that is fundamentally more compatible with a 21st Century, family-centred, leisure and sporting experience for supporters, visitors, amateur and professional athletes. The Stadium will be efficient, safe, robust, and attractive. Above all, it must be sustainable with a broad economic base to ensure viability and latest technologies to make it financially efficient and minimise its own carbon footprint. The Stadium will be a major component in the lower Derwent Valley masterplan alongside the Workington Sports Centre and at the edge of the town centre.

Critically the review was much more than a desk-top analysis and has sought the views and opinions of key stakeholders; administrators and management of the game; partners; and the fan base, on a qualitative and quantitative basis. 1.3 Data validity has been important to this review and was therefore the backdrop to question design and a broad respondent base. 2 x online surveys; 1 x paper survey; face to face and telephone interviews were tested as appropriate against desk top data. Data validity will ensure that this review provides a strong platform from which to move forward without assumption.

  • TT0910-154 TT No.154: Andy Gallon
    TT0910-154 TT No.154: Andy Gallon - Sat 6th February 2010; Workington v Solihull Moors; Conference North; Res: 1-0; Att: 368; Admission: £10; Programme: £2 (48pp); FGIF Match Rating: ***. When, in the late summer of 1986, as a fresh-faced university graduate, I started work in West Cumbria, one of the first things I wanted to see was Borough Park. The fate of clubs losing their Football League status has always fascinated me, and Workington, made somehow exotic by their geographical isolation, were of particular interest. I could remember watching the Reds thrashed 6-1 at The Shay by Fourth Division rivals Halifax Town during what proved the visitors' League swansong in the 1976-77 season. Workington, who on occasion attracted crowds of less than 1,000 in a community where rugby league and speedway tend to be more popular, won just four of their 46 games, conceded 102 goals, and were voted out in favour of flash, brash Wimbledon, therefore ending a League career of 26 largely unsuccessful seasons. No other Football League club, it seemed, was keen on the idea of a long coach trip to Workington any more - even if the trek did virtually guarantee two points. They'd managed to get rid of Barrow, another Cumbrian outpost of the game, in 1972, and here was a golden opportunity to dispense with the Reds. Job done. In 1986, the fabric of Borough Park was pretty much as it had been nine years earlier. The Main Stand still had its upper seating tier and roof, there was cover at the Derwent End, and the traditional corner floodlight pylons were at their original height.

  • What You Think About Borough Park
    22nd September 2017 WORKINGTON REDS – FANS SURVEY (AUGUST 2017) WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT BOROUGH PARK SUMMARY OF RESPONSES Workington Reds wish to take the opportunity to thank all our passionate supporters who took the time to complete the recent survey. As we plan a successful future together, what you told us about Borough Park will be very significant to our decision making process. As the Club believes everyone connected with the Reds should have a shared understanding of the Club’s focus and intended direction, this document contains a summary of all the responses we received. Our survey was launched on the 11th August and published in the Times & Star newspaper and on their website. The following day, when we played our first home game of the season against Halesowen, survey forms were distributed to everyone passing through the turnstiles and also inserted in every copy of the match day programme. A few days later, the online survey was also made available via our website and a link was emailed to everyone on our subscribers’ email list. By the closing date on 28th August, we had received 215 responses and we began the task of analysing the data. We were particularly encouraged to discover the responses came from a wide range of our supporters, across all the age groups; those who live locally and attend nearly every home game, as well as others who can only get to Borough Park just a few times each season. What is very clear is everyone is a genuine fan, with the Club’s best interests very much at heart.
