Overview
The must-have practical guide to the outdoor pools of the UK and Channel Islands.
Lidos change lives: we have no doubts about this. One of the ways they do this is by drawing people together. Most of the lidos in the UK are community run by an army of volunteers – they are as diverse and individual as the communities that cherish them.
From beautiful Art Deco lidos to humble, fiercely loved community pools, this is the definitive photographic guide to around 130 lidos in the UK and Channel Islands. This hugely-loved book is called 'the bible' by those in the know: each entry includes information on location, accessibility, contact details, size, season, water temperature, water type, parking and catering options. There's even space dedicated to allowing the user to record the date of their visit as they literally tick off each pool.The guide is organised geographically and includes information on how to find the lidos, as well as suggesting other nearby pools so you can plan your own lido road trips.
This new edition features newly opened lidos as well as a new section on reservoirs and quarries as well as updates to the text and photography.
