On our left, you can see two buildings just beyond the end of the stadium. The closest one is the 
business centre,
Q15
used for meetings and conferences, and so on, which provides a good source of
revenue for the upkeep of the sports facilities; 
and next to the business centre the biggest building 
is the hotel which is rented from us by an independent company. As you see, they are served by the
perimeter road which runs round three-quarters of the site. Now, coming round to the front of the building,
immediately in front of the entrance, that circular open space at the end of the road is the transport 
hub
Q16
From here, there are buses and a monorail link to the free car park, about ten minutes from
here, but you can’t see that. There’s also a large secure cycle park, about ten minutes from here, but you
can’t see that. There’s also a large secure cycle park. Oh, and secure parking, of course. People find it’s
very convenient and it keeps the site virtually car-free.
OK. Now if you look as far as you can over to the right, beyond the buildings, you can see our outdoor
pitches, which I mentioned earlier. Between the pitches and the entrance is a little kind of pedestrian
plaza.... are you with me? OK,
with the cinema in the building furthest away from us, next to the 
pitches,
Q17
then there’s the ten-pin bowling between the cinema and the road.
Near the far end of the perimeter road and between the mini-roundabout and the pitches – there’s 
our fitness centre,
Q18
with all kinds of equipment, and a small pool, and changing rooms for teams
using the pitches.
Then joined on to the stadium, next to the entrance, is a range of small shops which all specialise in sports
equipment, clothes, shoes. They sell toys and so on as well, all that sort of thing.
They seem to be doing well! As you see, the service road goes right round, but we keep the traffic and
the pedestrians well apart, so it’s all very relaxed round the plaza, popular with families.
And just in front of the bowling is our lovely restaurant. You can see it from here –it’s that building on the 
plaza between us and the bowling. It’s open all day and in the evenings.
There’s quite a queue there at weekends, I’m pleased to say. So now, you’ve got the layout, we can go
and have a closer look at everything.
