Summary edit
| Description |
English: Forest Road Playing Fields and Former Swimming Pool Site Here stood the Memorial Swimming Baths - built by public subscription in 1961. I remember door to door collections to raise the funds. Here I learnt to swim in 1964. It was used by the schools, The Police, RAF Leeming and the general Public.
The plaque saved from the demolition reads : "These baths are erected in grateful remembrance of those who laid down their lives that others might live in freedom. Their name liveth for evermore. June 1961." A smaller plaque explains : "This plaque and bricks in this plinth were recovered from the memorial bath demolished in January 1995. The plaque was rededicated on the anniversary of V.E. Day 8th May 1995" |
