Inside the leisure centre that inspired the name of Oasis

New images have surfaced showing the deteriorating condition of the Oasis Leisure Centre in Swindon, Wiltshire, which inspired the rock band Oasis’s name. Once a popular family attraction, the center has been closed for five years and is now overrun with grime and decay. Local campaigners are frustrated by the lack of progress on its future, with the council stating talks with the owner, Seven Capital, are ongoing. Plans for partial demolition have been approved, but the site remains largely untouched.
