Brighton council plans to replace King Alfred Leisure Centre with a £65M facility, including a gym, pool, and parking, while selling part of the site for affordable housing.
Brighton and Hove City Council has submitted plans to replace the aging King Alfred Leisure Centre with a £65 million modern facility, featuring a gym, swimming area, family entertainment zone, and underground parking.
Construction could start by late 2026, with completion expected by 2028, while the current centre remains open.
Preparatory work has begun, though shrub removal was delayed due to nesting sparrows.
The project, informed by community input, includes selling 60% of the site for housing, with 40% affordable units, and is backed by government grants and borrowing.
Historic England has cleared the site for redevelopment.
The final plans are available on the council’s planning portal.
