Manor Leisure Centre – Whittlesey
Council papers said Manor Leisure Centre’s sports hall “should be demolished”, with soft play and exercise classes relocated to the existing swimming pool building.

The papers also proposed the addition of three covered and floodlit padel tennis courts.
Taken together, these works would cost FDC an additional £1.7m

But it added the swimming pool would close for six months while construction works took place.
