Rivelin paddling pools


Recommended Posts

Doubt it, they tend not to bother cos they know it'll only end up getting vandalised by the Chavs.

 

That's why the Lido up at Millhouses closed years ago, cos it kept getting vandalised so the Council decided to close it, shame though, the Rivelin Paddling Pools etc could be a real hoot if they were better taken care of/ more secure.

I thought the council filled them in october, then emptied them beginning of June for 'maintainence work' which must get done in the dead of night as you never actually see anyone doing any work :suspect:

 

As for the Lido in Millhouses, I thought that was more a council decision to stop people having fun for free, rather than anything to do with vandalism?

No the pools aren't that deep, amkle depth at most for most decent sized adults.

 

Might be a bit cold though, even in the warm weather as the pools aren't heated.
