EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the summer of 1937 in London. The image captures a momentous occasion as the Mayor of Lambeth, Alderman E. A. Mills, inaugurates London's newest open-air swimming pool at Brockwell Park. Standing on the edge of the vast bath enclosure that covers an impressive 2 1/4 acres, Mayor Mills prepares to throw the first bather into the sparkling waters. The sheer scale of this magnificent swimming pool is awe-inspiring; stretching out before us is a stunning expanse measuring 165 feet long and 90 feet wide. It is hard to believe that such an extraordinary feat of engineering had come at a cost of £26,000 - a testament to its grandeur and ambition. This monochrome snapshot not only captures a significant moment in history but also provides us with glimpses into fashion trends from that era. As we observe individuals gathered around the poolside, their attire reflects twentieth-century style sensibilities. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk, this photograph serves as a reminder of how public spaces have evolved over time while offering us an opportunity to appreciate London's rich architectural heritage.
