Added Value:
Use has been made of the site topography, with levels of the extension area being between 1.8m and 3.0m below the floor level of the existing leisure centre. This has enabled the pool tanks to be constructed above ground, with the void created being utilised as a dry duct for the distribution of pipework and as a ventilation plenum.
