The panel comprises: a front skin 102 having a front surface 104 and a rear surface 106. The rear surface is sealingly bonded 108 to a peripheral frame 110 and to a structural insert 112 comprising exterior lateral edges 118 extending close to or abutting interior edges 120 of the peripheral support frame. The panel comprises a rear skin 126 having a front surface 124 and a rear surface. The front surface of the rear skin is sealingly bonded 128 to the structural insert and to the frame. The insert is dimensioned to engage the front and rear skins as well as the interior edges of the frame. A composite structure in which no part of the front skin is unsupported is formed. The front skin may made from, e.g. a ceramic, cement or polymer material. The fascia panel may incorporate a structural insert which is a expandable metal foil honeycomb.
