Jeff Smith MP has welcomed news that Manchester City Council are holding talks with the Unicorn Grocery and a social housing provider to bring forward plans for the former leisure centre site on Manchester Road, Chorlton.

Jeff has been working closely with local councillors and the city council to find a future for the former leisure centre site.

Jeff Smith, pictured above with Councillor Sheila Newman, said: “I’m pleased that Manchester City Council are in a dialogue with the Unicorn Grocery as an adjacent landowner, along with a social housing provider to bring forward a residential and retail mixed use development on the former Chorlton Leisure Centre site. These discussions are ongoing and, if they are successfully concluded, proposals will be brought to the City Council’s Executive this summer.”
