Welcome to the Stour Centre
The Stour Centre was originally opened in 1975 and was at the
time the most prestigious civic building project undertaken by
Ashford Borough Council. It provided a comprehensive range of
recreational and leisure services to meet the aspirations of the
town’s growing community.
In 2004 Ashford Borough Council, after having carried out
extensive consultation with residents, commenced a major remodeling
of part of the Stour Centre to modernise the facility to meet the
changing needs of the people today.
The remodelled centre opened on 15th September 2007 and offers a
wide range of services and facilities, in particular a brand new
leisure water area and Contours Health Club.
The full range of facilities are;
25metre pool, teaching pool, free form leisure water, 2 flumes
and raging river
Contours Health Club with 88 stations of fitness equipment, spa,
sauna, steam room and treatment rooms
8 court main sports hall
Group Fitness studio
2 squash courts
Meeting rooms
Cafeteria
Ashford Leisure Trust is delighted to manage this prestigious
facility on behalf of Ashford Borough Council.

Julie Rose Stadium for the Julie Rose Stadium Trust Company and
Kingsnorth Recreation Centre for the Kingsnorth Recreation Centre
Trustees.
