Maesteg Swimming Baths

A Memory of Maesteg.

I remember lots of lovely summer days during the school holidays which were spent at the open air swimming baths. We would travel down on the bus from Caerau, taking a cut lunch, and spend so many happy hours there. We had lots of fun jumping from all the diving boards and meeting up with school friends, both boys and girls. My husband lived in Temple Street and he and his mates would also spend many hours there. Glyn Maddock was the sort of caretaker, and he was great with us teenagers. I have been in there when I have returned to Maesteg on holiday, but there is not the same atmosphere now.
