Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I learnt to swim in this pool late 1950s. It was always massively popular during the hot summers we always seemed to have then, and I was sad to see it close - there are so few open air lido type pools around these days. I remember jumping off the high diving board 7metres and the fear of making the jump. Public swimming pools don't seem to have high diving boards any more; the safety reasons for this are understandable, but how do youngsters become Tom Daleys without them?
