The new David Lloyd Leisure Centre in Swindon is nearing completion.
At a special topping out ceremony today senior representatives from builder Willmott Dixon and David Lloyd celebrated the structural completion of the new £12 million pound facility - and looked forward to its summer 2007 grand opening.

Situated adjacent to the A419, next door to the Motorola factory in Groundwell, the new club will boast both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spa and leisure facilities, three outdoor and five indoor tennis courts, and a multi-purpose sports hall.
Even before opening - which is due on 16 July 2007 - over 150 members have already signed up.
