Notes: Information about the centre can be found from Adobe Acrobat links on the Kensington & Chelsea Leisure Centres Web page.  

The building dates to 1907 and has brick-size tiles, side gutters, but no end gutters, and a translucent skylight that runs the length of the pool.

Reviews: It's not a 'smart' pool, but it is always clean and friendly.

A wonderful old building, convenient and central - but the pool and facilities are pretty old.

The showers are old and excellent - push-button operated, they stay on for a decent length of time, they're hot and have good pressure. I really, really liked it. It ain't broke and I hope they don't mend it.
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.

Oliver Merrington's www.lidos.org.uk has an extensive list of "lidos" (that's British for "outdoor swimming pools"). If you're looking for a place to swim in the U.K. that's not under roof in the summer, www.lidos.org.uk should fill the bill.
