Bath Rugby has agreed to sell off a plot of land to Lidl so it can build a new food store next to the club's existing training facilities, it has been revealed.
The rugby union side announced on Friday (October 28) it had exchanged contracts on part of the land it owns at Lambridge with the supermarket chain. Plans will be shared with the public and local businesses "in due course", according to the Premiership club, which said initial proposals would be published ahead of any planning application being submitted to Bath and North East Somerset Council.
The announcement comes a week after the club said plans to build a new stadium at Bath Rugby's historic home had taken a major step forward following a victory in court.
