Having spotted a few other reports on this place and being not far from the area anyway, we decided to give this place a go and what a result it turned out to be. With a somewhat difficult entry and a slightly messy cut to the hand, we were in!

Here’s a small amount of history gathered from other reports and pieced together by the devil himself.

Beechdale Swimming Centre opening in the 1970s and closing its doors in August 2015, Beechdale hosted the Nottinghamshire County Swimming Team as well as where Olympic gold-winning swimmer Rebecca Adlington did much of her training.

The center closed due to a more advanced 50m pool opening nearby



Enough of the reading side of things and onto the viewing side…
