PROPOSALS to reconfigure Beacon Park’s 18-hole golf course into a nine-hole pitch and putt have been unveiled.

New padel courts has already been approved on part of the current facility, meaning changes were needed.

But a planning application said other factors had also led to the decision to cut back on the scale of the golf provision.

> “The existing course has become under utilised due to excessive flooding of the lower half in winter months.  
>  
> “An application for padel courts on the north side of the application site has also recently been granted, meaning this will disrupt one of the existing holes.  
>  
> “Therefore it is an appropriate period for the course to be developed from 18 holes to a nine hole course.  
>  
> “Three additional pathways will also be constructed.”
