Bleachingfield Centre

The Bleachingfield Centre, located in the heart of Dunbar, is a welcoming and accessible community facility that also houses the local library. There are a number of meeting rooms and a sports hall. We also have a small children’s park outside the building.

Bleachingfield has free on-site parking. Be aware the centre is located close to the primary school so the car park can get busy at school drop off and pick up times.

Visitors have access to toilets, including accessible toilets and baby changing facilities.

Wifi available throughout, note: connection cannot be guaranteed.
