I've been in touch with
Byrne Avenue Community Trust
and have asked and been told that when they get the lease in the next month or 2 it could be possible to get a tour of it before renovation.
If anyone else is interested in going, I have suggested each donating a couple of quid to the fund
List for interested folks

I would love to do the tour.
Use to go there every week in the 60's and 70's and had swim lessons from age four with Mr Huddard...any one remember him? He was a right character.. full of stories. He walked with a bad limp ..said it was a war wound.. but as I said.. he was full of stories.
Lots of happy memories of the place!

There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music.

Lots of happy memories of the place! mr huddard taught me to swim, i done my 1st width at 3yr!(them were the days you got thrown in the deep end ha) i also remember lying over a stool in the back room to practice breast stroke ha, i also remember the white floats that you tied around you with rubber inner tubes and does anyone remember all the tins of marvel dried milk he used to have stacked up in that back room ha...oh no im too old lol
