    It’s very sad to see it like that. A swim and a Turkish bath every week used to keep me going through winter. Thanks for taking us there. Nothing will change my opinion that councils are too often just talking shops who don’t really care about the towns they are supposed to be caring for. I think I’ll write to them, much good it may do.

    I used to love swimming there! Never had a Turkish bath though, never had any money for such a thing when I lived there. Ah, memories, memories, memories 😢😊😢😊😊

    Fascinating video Such a shame that it's left to decay, while the authorities claim that repair work has begun.
    Good work Donny.

    Big shame the council happily build new and leave the older better buildings to rot.

    I don’t think they got any intension of getting it up and running again, I think they left it so in 2023 they can say they started work on it but it became aware it was too damp and water got in ruined all electric so only choice is to knock it down 😡 , I think this has been planned for last 3 years cause last year they started building the new swimming pool Nxt to the savoy where the old social service building was, x

    We used to love going to the mixed days at the Turkish bath. That red counter in the locker room, free tea and a biscuit. Served by a pleasant guy. The state of it is shameful. Clearly trying to let it rot until it is beyond being restored. 12 years since I left Donny area.

      We had toast with our tea on women’s days. The renovation has recently started. I’m looking forward to going back there :)

    Despite not having any water in it, it's still the best pool in the area.

    This place did have planning to be started this year to redevelop it but the council wanted a company to put over £1mil upfront to get the extra from the council to aid the rebuild progress as the council have had no intention of rebuilding this place they will just do what they did with the odean at top of hall gate and rip it down

      Hopefully something will be done with it. I always thought it would make a great little casino ! But by the looks it's just been left to rot slowly.
