I thought Sainsbury's always owned the plot. They definitely owned the old dept. Store.
Go after school and there are hundreds of community clubs using the facilities. There are running and athletic clubs for adults and kids, hockey teams. Kids holiday clubs. Tonbridge jrs use the 4g over winter when the park is unavailable.
Probably less over summer bar the holiday clubs.
We have friends kids that do lessons in the pool too.
It's all income for them.
And £1k a year isn't bad when virgin active and £144 a month though I'd only want to swim so wouldn't bother.

It's apparently sold to Sainsbury's now. But I'm a member of the gym, kid goes to taekwondo there, there are all manner of classes and clubs at the leisure centre side, and all manner of social clubs, notably for old people, on the other side. I'm also giving blood there next week. We'll still have the pool, but a whole lot will be lost to the community.
Walk the dog through the school grounds a fair bit and I've rarely seen anyone on their lovely 4g pitches, tennis courts or running track.
