More about this scene
Facing the Spanish-style shelter and restaurant, built in 1935, are the remains of Mr Ball's Hospital, and the naval cemetery with its lonely surviving grave. The hospital was closed in 1816. Locals knew the pool as May's fathomless pool. Eventually it was filled in, and a new pool became a popular attraction, particularly in the 1960s and 70s during Children's Week.
