Here is a handsome pavillion housing the New Scene Youth Club on the playing fields and sports ground bordered by Newton Lane, Kingsway and the old railway. Cycle and pedestrian access to these facilities could be easily provided.

However, a consequence of establishing a busway on the Mickle Trafford railway is that valued public open spaces such as this are likely, despite token hand-wringing by councillors, to become snapped up for even more housing and commercial developments.

And indeed, the process has already started, as was indicated at the end of April 1999 when this planning notice appeared in the local press:

"NEWTON: Residential development and new highway access to New Scene Youth Centre plus pedestrian and cycle access to Sustrans route at land- former allotments- and New Scene Youth centre, Newton Lane, for Cheshire County Council".
