The pool is one of a few remaining inland brine pools left in Britain today and the largest swimming pool in the area. It remains highly popular with swimmers, who enjoy the unique nature of swimming outdoors during the summer months. The outdoor pool first opened to the public on the 1st July 1935 and the pool water temperature is now maintained at 74°F and through solar gain is usually much warmer. Some of our older customers still reminisce about their school days at the pool, when they claim the water was only just above freezing point and they happily swam in it! |
