The history of Britains lidos, with many sites having their own individual case study. Some of these include Blackpool, Morecambe, New Brighton and Tinside.
Excellent and well written!
Great case studies of a bygone age. I bought a watercolour painting that showed an unknown lido/open air pool, so bought this book in an effort to identify it. Unfortunately, I couldn't do that but this book has certainly narrowed it down for me.
I know that the British weather is not always kind for outdoor swimming but is it time to resurrect some of these lost lidos ?
