Ground broken on new Lichfield Leisure Centre

Ground has been officially broken on the new Lichfield Leisure Centre at Stychbrook Park. It marks the start of construction on the £10m centre, which is expected to open to the public in 2025.

Owned by Lichfield District Council, the centre will offer a range of amenities and will replace the ageing Friary Grange leisure centre. Facilities will include a 25-metre, six-lane swimming pool with movable floor and poolside seating and changing. There will also be a 80-station fitness gym with assessment room and equipment store, an indoor-cycling studio, dance studio and community room.
