I remember New Ferry Baths Sunny, never away from it and the weather was so much better then. No use for outdoor swimming pools now with our grotty weather although today has been lovely.

What I find so baffling, is that these baths (all of them) were kept, maintained and managed so very well for how ever many years. probably about 50 on average. We had parks and gardens, managed and well maintained. There had been two world wars in the last century, and times where hard, but hey everything managed to keep going and build upon what they had, without funding from the EU. Then, all of a sudden, councils can't afford to keep anything managed or running, not even their buildings or pruning the bloody trees. Why not ? We pay higher and higher rates and getting less and less. Don't give the austerity package, because that is so recent it doesn't even equate to what I am talking about.
It is a great shame, and when other areas still have their outdoor pools, we've lost out and so have the kids who no longer know not what to do during their summer hols.
Rant over....
