Old Photograph Paddling Pool Gourock Scotland

Old photograph of the paddling pool for children on the coast in Gourock, Renfrewshire, near Glasgow, Scotland. The lido was opened in 1909, and the water heating system was installed in 1969. It is the oldest heated swimming pool in Scotland. The pool is heated and uses salt water taken from the River Clyde. The water is filtered, cleaned and maintained at a minimum temperature of 29C. Facilities include a gym and a children’s pool. The lido opens from May to the first week in September.
