RARE PHOTOS: Trust absolutely delighted plans for historic swimming pool upgrade greenlit - The Real Truth

A historic community swimming pool that has run for more than 100 years is to be upgraded after Wirral Council signed off new plans.

The Calday Grange Swimming Pool Trust had submitted proposals to improve the facilities at Gourleys Lane in Newton. This included a new single storey training room, reception area, accessible facilities, and expanding the changing rooms and creating "a facility fit for public use."

The pool has been open for more than a century, first opening as an open air swimming pool in 1921 and these new plans have just been given conditional approval by Wirral Council with the pool hoping the improvements will “take it to the next level.”
