Latest on Northfield Leisure Facilities

L

Lots of local people continue to contact me about the future of Northfield’s leisure facilities. For the latest update please read this article on B31 Voices about the City Council’s Cabinet Meeting on the 15 September 2014 – at which the future of the pool and leisure centre was discussed.

After the recent local consultation and residents meeting chaired by Labour Councillor and Northfield District Chair Brett O’Reilly, the City Council have now decided to further consider three sites for the future location of the Northfield Pool and Leisure Centre:

  • The current site on Bristol Road South, Northfield
  • The former MG Rover site at Longbridge
  • Price’s Square on Northfield High Street
