Islington Council has revealed plans to rebuild and improve facilities at Finsbury Leisure Centre as part of a larger development earmarked for the St Luke's area.

Included in the revamp would be improvements to squash courts, the sports hall and football pitches.

The council also wants to improve the layout of outdoor spaces for local people.

The proposals are part of the St Luke's Area Draft Plan, which is currently out for public consultation and includes proposals for council homes and new public spaces.

A proportion of private homes on the site would help fund new leisure facilities.
