is in Danson Park and is owned by the Council. The layout
includes three open-air pools, one large for adults and two
small pools for children. Showers and foot baths are provided
for the pre-cleansing of bathers. The water is kept pure by
continuous filtration and sterilisation with chlorine and
ammonia gases.
Samples of water have been taken by this department
from time to time and the results of bacteriological examinations
have been satisfactory on each occasion.
