Upgraded leisure facilities are part of a plan that will help Diss “buck the trend” of empty buildings. While the sale of the John Grose site has not yet been completed, it is hoped that it will be confirmed later this month or in early September – paving the way for work to begin in early or mid-2024. New Diss Town Mayor Graham MinshullOptions for additions to the gym within the site are still under consideration, but the wider project will also involve investing around £1 million in Diss Leisure Centre’s swimming pool and an upgrade to the bus station situated opposite the John Grose site. “Following a strategic review, the decision was made to close the Ford dealership at Park Road, Diss,” he said. John Grose began trading at the Park Road site in 1996, so this is a site with a great deal of history in it for us at John Grose, but we hope we can welcome people into to one of our other dealerships in the future.”
