the old pools are.....old, but are they very nice? I always thought (still do) that they were the worst sort of Victorian architecture - lumpen, ugly, looking more like a workhouse than a place to enjoy yourself and get healthy!
We cant save everything just because it is old. 100+ years is a good innings for the old place, now lets look to the next 100 (ok, modern building, lets say 30) years and build something great for our kids!
