Chippenham Swimming Pool
A Memory of Chippenham.
I was about 12 when the pool opened and what excitement it brought to us kids of Chippenham. I learnt to swim their with my friends (Margaret Ritchie, Jean West etc. and many more). I remember the bank being covered in sun bathers, people would take picnics and spend the whole day their. There was a shop at the top of the bank that sold teas, coffees and snacks. In fact when I was 14 & 15 I worked their for the summer holidays. I remember my sister Pat Potter tripping in the kids pool, then standing up and not realising her bikini top was up around her neck and she was displaying her charms. Oh! how those years have passed by and how much water has flowed under the bridge since then!
