Lichfield’s new £9.5m leisure centre in Stychbrook Park is to be named after Olympic champion swimmer Rebecca Adlington, who joined Stepnell on site for the ground breaking ceremony.

When built, facilities will include a 25 metre, six-lane pool, bathrooms, changing rooms, circulation spaces, a gym, fitness/dance studio, spin studio and lobby.

Further works to construct a new car park and collection of 3G pitches is set to be undertaken in the near future

The new centre, procured through the Procure Partnerships Framework, will replace the ageing Friary Grange Leisure Centre when it opens, which is expected to be near the end of 2025.

The project team includes Box Architects, civil and structural engineer Adept and building services engineer BWB Consulting.
