The name of the gym hasn\u2019t yet been disclosed but I\u2019ll keep an eye out and update when known.<\/p>\n<p>Greenwich Council formerly had a gym nearby too operated by GLL under the \u201cBetter\u201d brand which if memory serves was in the Valley? I really should remember given I would visit on occasion when I had a borough-wide membership.<\/p>\n<p>To be honest I wasn\u2019t even aware it had closed!<\/p>\n<p>Mind you it was so far back the old Plumstead gym wasn\u2019t in what is now the Plumstead Centre.<\/p>\n<p>Stone Lake retail park opened in Charlton back in 1998 around the time the road between Woolwich and Greenwich saw major works in advance of the Millennium Dome opening.<\/p>\n<p>They built a huge car park which was never full.
