We, the undersigned, believe that the presence of Bath Rugby on the Recreation Ground is an integral part of the fabric of the City and contributes positively to the quality and variety of life in the Council district in many ways.

We further believe that Bath Rugby should be enabled and encouraged to develop and improve the facilities on the Recreation Ground in a way that is not only to the benefit of the residents of Bath and the wider community but in keeping with the covenant in the Trust Deed, and that any building should be of a quality and scale that complements and enhances its environment and the status of Bath as a World Heritage City.
