Exciting new images showing how a rebuilt east Leeds leisure centre might look have been released. Long-awaited plans to demolish Fearnville Leisure Centre, in Gipton, have been formally submitted by Leeds City Council.
If approved, the scheme will see a brand new building constructed next door to the current centre, which was built in 1980. New tennis courts and football pitches, as well as a replacement skate park and BMX track, would also be installed to replace the site’s ageing facilities.
A statement attached to the planning application said Fearnville "is in need of redevelopment to ensure the east Leeds area has a high quality leisure and wellbeing provision, which is fit for purpose.” It added: “The proposal seeks to stimulate the whole site with activity and a new lease of life.”
