Exciting proposals to transform Ilfracombe's museum into a more prominent and iconic building connected to the Landmark Theatre are being revealed to the public. As well as involving the museum and theatre, the proposals include plans for the wider seafront area including a plaza area, Capstone Slide and Sea View Platform as part of a broader regeneration package.

Mayor of Ilfracombe, Councillor Geoff Fowler, gave public commendation to twelve special members of the community today, in what was his last Pride in Ilfracombe award ceremony. Nominated by members of the public, the Good Citizen awards recognise the achievements and good work that goes on, frequently behind the scenes.

This month sees the first anniversary of the opening of The Ilfracombe Centre and for many, its opening couldn’t have come at a better time. Over 22,000 people have visited the Centre in its first year – the equivalent of serving the total population of Ilfracombe twice over!
