Cool little spot. Would have been a great pool in its day. Not sure how long it’s been allowed to silt over but definitely not swim able now. Very small walk from the car park. Nice little waterfall.

Always a great stop to give the dog a run. More should be made of this place.

Built in the 1930,s this was once a pool for a school.However it was badly damaged during a storm in 2004 and has since been neglected.The pools were excavated revealing the handrails and steps and pools. But the water is not good for swimming.There are toilets on site and a rubbish bin.Really just a place to stretch the legs and give kids and dog a run round.No play equipment.

It's a nostalgic place for me & others my age & older, as we used to swim there. It's been let go nowadays, but still a lovely place to visit with a lovely short walk through the trees.

This place was lovely. The council needs to rejuvenate this historic venue.
