Bristol's most popular swimming pool |
Gloucester Road Bishopston Bristol BS7 8BN United Kingdom +44 117 924 3548 |
Formerly a cinema, hence the large spectator balcony, this listed building is very popular with Bristolians. With a pool length of 22 metres (nine metres in width) and a spectator capacity of 400, Bristol North regularly hosts competition swimming for clubs in the Bristol area. However, when the Mark Spitzes of the future aren't ploughing the lanes, it's available for everyone to enjoy. A variety of sessions are available, including: women-only, sessions for the elderly, lunchtime lane swimming, swimming lessons (adult and children), aquababies, early morning swimming and aquarobics. These are held at various different times throughout the week, in between general swimming sessions - the timetable is rather complicated, so ring for details. There are facilities for the disabled, including an easy-access ramp. Admission: adults £2.20, children 95p Review © 2007, Wcities |
