[QUOTE="sal, post: 27620, member: 3645"] This weekend 8th/9th September 2007 includes the Heritage Open Days and the site of Broomhill Pool is open to the public 11am - 5pm both days; There is a website [url]www.savebroomhillpool.org[/url] and a film called The Pool by James Sharpe available on You Tube and also on the London Pools Campaign website [url]www.londonpoolscampaign.com[/url] I've spent the last five years campaigning to try and get Broomhill Pool re-opened again and set up a Yahoo Group called Pooling Resources [url]http://groups.yahoo.com/group/poolingresources[/url] There is also Oliver Merrington's Yahoo Lidos Group if you're interested in lidos generally. [url]http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lidos[/url] There is no need for Broomhill really to remain derelict: it requires an estimated £3.9million to be re-opened as a heated outdoor 50metre pool; Ipswich Borough Council promised £1 million IF the organisation known as the Broomhill Pool Trust could raise the rest. (Heritage Lottery Fund etc) This is not such a huge sum when you consider that something like £800 million investment is flowing through the Waterfront area of Ipswich. [/QUOTE]
