The transfer of the Historic Grade ii * listed Pump Rooms at Tenbury Wells is still in progress.
Malvern Hills District Council have decided that to avoid any future financial liability for the building it should be transferred to the control of Tenbury Town Council.
All the arrangements have been discussed behind closed doors using the much overworked Section 100(1) of the Local Government Act 1972.
It is therefore impossible at this stage to know what plans the Town Council have to make the building self-sufficient and not add additional costs to the precept.
With vision and proper management, this building could be a real asset to Tenbury Wells and become a tourist destination, but does the Town Council have the necessary skill set and business acumen at their disposal to full-fill this?
