With
84 acres set inside a secure fence, the
Newark Showground
offers a perfect venue for all outside
events. A further 60 acres are available
for parking of traders, exhibitors and
public. The Showground is a flat site
with 6 acres of buildings, 258 stables,
3 Horse Rings and a further 10 small animal
rings.
The soil
is an free-draining sand over gravel,
which is servicable when many other local
and regional facilities have long closed.
The newest pavilion, the George Stephenson
Exhibition Hall was completed in April
2005 in time for the 2005 County Show.
It has added a further 3000 sq m of covered
exhibition space to the facilities already
on offer. Along with this since 2002,
two toilet blocks have been completely
replaced and two others upgraded.
Access
can be from the A46, but the ideal approach
is from the A17, which allows a longer
build of traffic onto the 20 acre South-Eastern
runway. The Newark Showground is only
1.5 miles from the A1 and offers many
facilities, as can be seen above. |
