Reviews:
|
A good public-access pool in an historic early 20th century bath, with recently renovated interior. The changing areas have new showers and lockers, and are well-maintained and heated.
If you disagree with this review, click HERE. If we can fit your comments into this section, we will - "different strokes for different folks" is particularly applicable to the swimming community.

Data source:

The information for this listing was initially cobbled together from a couple of Web sites and has been greatly improved with the help of the Camden Swiss Cottage Swimming Club. (The "Data source" may have contributed the initial, basic information used to create this listing but, in most cases, that information will have been added to over time by a number of other sources - most often, other swimmers. We can't acknowledge the source of each bit of information, but we are grateful to all contributors.)
