The future of the Barn Elms Sports Centre in Barnes will be the subject of a new exhibition starting next week.

The site is due to house a new sporting facility and members of the public are being asked for their views on the designs.

The scheme is a joint development between Richmond and Wandsworth councils; they aim to provide indoor and outdoor sports facilities.

These include all weather hockey pitches, a boathouse and an improved pavilion with changing facilities.

The chairman of Richmond Council's leisure services committee, Gina MacKinney, said: "We are pleased to be working so closely with Wandsworth to provide high class sports facilities at Barn Elms. I urge residents to let us have their comments."

The exhibition is at the Barn Elms Sports Centre, Queen Elizabeth Walk, Barnes from July 13-26; 9am until 8pm.
