A Memory of Gosport.

From the age of about 10, so about 1957, every year for about 5 years I held a season ticket which cost 5 shillings at the Gosport Swimming Bath for the whole summer, and spent hours there every week. I could even be somewhere in this picture! If I was feeling flush I could buy a choc-ice for 5 old pence, and I always had a penny for a squirt of Brylcreem from the dispenser.

I used to go to the pool as a young lad every summer, then one year I ran to the entrance and there was nothing there, only the sides of the pool was just visible, it was being filled in, I was absolutely gutted, I would like to find out some information on the pool ie: history, why it closed etc etc and some photos, there is hardly anything on the internet about this I've searched everywhere.
