EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the anticipation surrounding Chingfords new hillside swimming pool in 1936. With its completion just around the corner, excitement fills the air as locals eagerly await its grand opening by Sir Kingsley Wood, Minister of Health. Nestled within seven acres of enchanting woodland, this architectural marvel required extensive excavation to accommodate its unique hillside location. Positioned strategically on the side of a hill, this pool offers both protection from gusty winds and an abundance of sunshine. Spanning an impressive area of 2700 square yards, it boasts a generous swimming length of 165 feet and a width of 60 feet. But it is not only size that sets this pool apart; it also features additional amenities such as a charming cafe, sun terraces for lounging under clear skies, and administrative buildings to ensure smooth operations. The photograph showcases the stunning dominance of this new swimming pool over the picturesque countryside that surrounds it. From here, visitors are treated to breathtaking views overlooking London's Lee Valley all the way to Hertfordshire's rolling hills. As we gaze upon this historic image frozen in time, we can't help but imagine how exhilarating it must have been for those who witnessed Chingfords hillside swimming pool come to life almost nine decades ago.
