Imagine my delight as a child to discover there was a swimming pool on top of Box Hill!
Although we lived in Sussex we would often have "days out" in Kent or Surrey.
Box Hill was a favourite, and I remember a swim on a particularly hot day, it was my first experience of an open air swimming pool. The photo is just as I remembered it and I would love to know what is on the site now, and when it was closed.
