City Floating Baths, #RiverDee, #Chester. Built 1883, silted up in 1888, broke free in 1899 ending up on the weir and sold for scrap in 1901. #floatingpool #riverswimming

On Monday we grabbed a few hours with AgneseSanvito to photograph our extension to a Grade II Listed house in #Blackheath. Very lucky with the weather, felt like spring.

Bringing historic pools back into use isn’t quick or easy, but it’s a journey we are committed to because groups like the Friends Of Tarlair have shown it’s possible. If you’d like to get involved please get in touch.

More than 12 years after the initial campaign group of three formed, #Tarlair has an exciting future ahead, securing a 99-year lease and working with Studio Octopi. “We just had to do it for the community. We want to bring back the buzz.” buff.ly/47LA7Ko

🏊🏼‍♀️More lido-related good news: The Category A listed Tarlair Pool in Aberdeenshire (1929-31) has to be one of the most spectacular bathing spots in the British Isles. After a decade long community campaign, in 2024 the Art Deco pavilion & cafe will be restored by Studio Octopi👏🏻

3 years ago a group of us got together & established Future Lidos. A successful The National Lottery Heritage Fund application enabled us to build a #lido toolkit to help campaigners across the #UK & #Ireland. Today it’s gone live! Enjoy. #lidos #futurelidos futurelidos.org/home

Exciting to see Future Lidos launch their Toolkit today! Part of the Pooling Resources project that is supporting the revival of lidos across the UK including Saltcoats Bathing Pond in Ayrshire 🏊
