Indoor climbing firm to scales new heights with East London venue

An indoor climbing specialist has announced plans to open a new venue in East London.

Aitch Group has confirmed the lease of an 12,500 sq. ft. unit at Canal Place to Stronghold Climbing Centres for its newest rock climbing centre.

With a maximum wall height of 4m and 700 sq m of climbing surface within the building, the Canal Place centre will also feature a yoga studio, full retail offering and a café overlooking Regent’s Canal.

Patrick Hammond, MD of Stronghold Climbing Centres, commented: “Right from our first contact with Aitch Group it has been a fantastic experience. They understood what kind of space we were searching for and how our plans for expansion would fit into their building.

“The Aitch Group team have been brilliant in getting the Canal Place site ready for us to move in and now that we have the keys, we are cracking on with our internal fit out. This site will be a real step forward in what climbing walls are like in London and the UK.

“We are really looking forward to getting these beautiful doors open soon for the large East London climbing community and are looking forward to working with Aitch Group again in the future.”

Piers Cook, assistant head of asset and property management at Aitch Group, added: “Aitch Group are pleased to announce the lease of the 12,500 sqft commercial unit to Stronghold Climbing Centres.

“The installation of one of the largest indoor climbing centres in East London will be a great asset to those at Canal Place and the surrounding community. We look forward to seeing it in action.”
