A planning application sent to says Tesco wants to build the at its store on Cobden Road at St Rollox Business and Retail Park in Springburn. Documents are requesting permission to change the upstairs floor of the store from shopping "used for garment sale" into a space for "assembly and leisure".

The space had previously been used for the selling of Tesco brand F&F as well as Burton and Dorothy Perkins. Proposed floor plans show that the mezzanine level could be transformed and include equipment such as running machines, rowing machines, weight machines, squat racks, a studio, and a spin room.

Glasgow City Council will consider the plans over the coming weeks. Tesco has been approached for more information..
