The package includes freeholds for the Town Hall, Somer Centre, Silver Street Nature Reserve and land at the entrance to the Town Park, as well as a 99-year lease on the Orchard Hall. The open market value of these properties totals £760,000, plus an additional £170,000 to be spent by B&NES on the Town Hall to bring it up to standard –most significantly including the installation of a new lift.
