I've seen your show a few times now and becoming quite addicted. You're both very amusing and very entaining 😂😂😂.
Really glad you are enjoying... be sure to check out the second channel
This give me chills, it reminds me of awful swimming lessons in the 70s that my mum made me have, awful strong chlorine burning my eyes, chipped horrible floor tiles, changing cubicles along the pool and a dodgy swimming instructer who would just push us to in😫 happy days😭😭😭
there used to be benches all across the wall on the viewing platform. these baths are where i learnt to swim as a child, we spent many a happy day in that pool!
Yes I’m guessing they are the ones that were stacked up in one of the rooms! It’s a shame isn’t it
Please just keep on . You're vids are hilarious, I've already lost half a cup of tea laughing .PPI ! 🤣
I'm glad you stayed safe Matt
❤️❤️❤️
Andy just kills me with laughter… you guys are the absolute best! Recovering from covid at the minute and I’m binge watching the whole of your videos… you guys are amazing 😻
The chimney would have been for the coal that they would use for heating up the water for the pool back in the day. I also thing those little gullies are for water. I would imagine back in the day there was a natural stream or something that would flow through there. Could be wrong though.. Great video guys and had me in stitches yet again..
Your conversations are absolutely hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣
The hidden underground tunnels were for the mermaids of course!
I'll be getting ready for work on the night shift, but i'll watch it later at work. Love you guys, and Sue of course. Happy Valentines Day.
Can't wait to see the lovely Matt and Andy
I’m so glad I found this channel. What a laugh 😂😂 🇦🇺
❤️❤️❤️
It'd be sweet if you can get into that plant room. Those bricks into that tunnel were precarious. The lintel had definitely fallen down. That reminds me of a cart path for transporting materials between the plant and the pool. Many buildings constructed around the same time period here in the USA had similar tunnels to transport materials between buildings and some cities had large networks of those tunnels.
You guys are so funny! LOVE it! “It’s quite a deep deep end innit”🤣
Heavy petting = feelies for feelies but no putties in😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Looking forward to watching another Awesome episode 🙂👍🏻
You guys are the best by far! You make things so much more entertaining than all the rest out there! Keep them coming! 😂
Twice in 1 week.....FANTASTIC cnt wait
Matt, I am so glad you got brains to go with that handsome face!..and refused to go any further into that dangerous tunnel...THUMBS UP!!!
You two absolutely crack me up! Thank you for giving me a laugh!! Have a great day!
Xxxx
Oh my! Scary stuff! But very fun! 🤗
I just love the banter between you two :) Leaving a comment to help the algorithm :)
Another fantastic video guys! 😊
I'm curious with this one like the naughty cat.. Reminder on matt and andy xx
When you went into the pool room it took me back to Bramley baths in Leeds, looked very similar. Good memories learning to swim, the cubicles were same think you only got an hour or so then had to get out. Depending if full. Thanks for this. Also pleasse consider putting a mask on in those dusty attics,. The other thought I had when you were in that tunnel....like a man putting his head in the lions mouth, braver than me. Love it. Happy valentine's to yr wives!
That pictures of Andy.😂😂
Thank you for always making me laugh 😆
Tunstall swimming baths i used to love going there many years ago
It does need saving
Another great video good to c these places before they get wrecked then the history is gone,watching all your old video's as always you two really cheer up every one's day you don't half take some chances take care can't wait for the next new one's 👍
Thank you it really means a lot
Absolutely loved this. As you said going the extra mile make it all worth while . Xx
A New finders beepers video, truly the best Valentines Day gift one can receive.
Aww thanks... you now get a free kiss from Andy 😂😂😂
@@FINDERSBEEPERS Oh yes daddy Andy
😂😂
Omg Guys I had to have some swimming lessons there when I was younger when my usual pool was out of order, Scary as hell as a child that place was. I have to drive past this when I go to Asda just around the corner.
It’s scary now as an adult and I bet you come out in cold sweats when you drive past it
Thank you for making me smile again. As you always do. This place is epic, you took some claustrophobic risks there hey? But, glad your both safe xxx
Thank you x
@@FINDERSBEEPERS your welcome xx
Another great video as always! Also Andy has really pretty blue eyes.
They are very blue
historian Betty Cooper said: “There were first and second-class Turkish baths and vapour baths between the swimming pool and the fire station.
Patrons paid a shilling for a first-class Turkish bath and sixpence for a second. They were charged sixpence for a first-class vapour bath. A second-class one cost threepence.
Designed by Absalom Reade Wood, the red brick and terracotta building is part of the town’s Jubilee Buildings, erected to celebrate Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in 1887.
The main building, the Victoria Institute, in The Boulevard, contained an art school, library and technical college.
The second building, in Greengates Street, housed an armoury, fire station, swimming pool and public baths.
Wowzers
@@FINDERSBEEPERS I could see you in the turkish baths
@@mikestickersm3mxb279 Wow Mike!! That’s wonderful to tell us the history!!! You answered a lot of questions!!! It all makes sense now!
Thank you so much for sharing!!!!

@@kathybell7407 Its local to me, the locals tried everything to keep the baths open but the council closed them to save money
Burrowing through dark tunnels is fun 😜
Looking forward to this one guys 🎞 x
Gutted missed the premier ... but at least I got something great to sit and watch ❤️
That was really cool! Love the hidden room fireplace, wonder if that was still left alone because nobody really knows about it... y’all give me smiles! Stay safe!
Aww you give us smiles xx
You all went to extremes trying to find something great and you truly did find little secret places. As always, you all had me laughing a lot!! Love you both! ❤️❤️
I can't stop watching you two, but "THE GLORY HOLE" you two are eye ball raisin amazing, just recently starting watching, now I can't stop, much love from Scotland xxx
Hi guys great show by the way, about the channels in the floors, they were for steel pipework to run to and from the boilers and around the building, we normally find them in hospitals or large buildings etc, cheers Mart
lmao omg you guys are freaking nuts!! love you guys!!
Brilliant video guys, you cheer me up xxx
You being cheered up cheers us up
Well done Matt & Andy on another great explore, Thanks.
Andrew you are hilarious and you remind me of my Grandad, he was a lovely lovely man 👍🐾🥰
Brilliant explore as always. Laughed so much. 🤣 Now digging out my Kevin bloody Wilson cd to listen to the public hair song. 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Great explore as always guys. Your jokes make lockdown bearable. Glad to now have something on Sunday and Thursday to look forward to.
Can't wait for my 'You can't say that' T shirt to arrive :D
It won’t be every Thursday... but glad you are enjoying! Really happy we are helping you through it xxx
The library is next door to the baths. The baths have underground subways

Really glad you enjoyed it I’ve had a lovely day thank you hope you have too xx
you guys did well better vid than last week ;)
I used to swim here at school, I remember nicking peoples towels
😂😂😂😂😂😂 hopefully they weren’t wearing them when you pinched em 😂😂😂
This place closed down in March 2011 was a very popular baths. The locals still trying get in reopened
I really hope they manage it it would be a shame to lose it
Definitely looks like Hillsborough Baths before Weatherspoons turned it into Rawson Spring/Deep End. Brilliant video. Cheers.
I used to go there with my dad
I think that tunnels a hypocaust, a system for circulating hot air. Looked it up ont' 'TINTERWEB!!! I'm a Sheffulder as well!
😎👍 The real question are you blue Or red
When we were kids we went to one in Sheffield like this 😎
Just found your channel! Proper funny, ace explores! currently binge watching EVERYTHING!! 😁
Really glad you are enjoying the channel don’t forget to check out the second channel beeper beef
@@FINDERSBEEPERS whooo whooooop I’ll have a look 👍🏻😊
Love you guys. You are hilarious 🤣
I was thinking, after seeing Matts fear of confined spaces in mid week, does this mean Andy will be staying 24hrs in Glasgow by chance 😜😂
Oh if you’ve not seen it yet, get yourselves over to Beepers Beef and share it to bits 😬
That would defo top me over the edge lol
😂👍
@@FINDERSBEEPERS hi matt do you have an address that i can send u guy a parcel of appreciation,

Unbelievable location, love you guys, much love and respect from Taiwan.
Happy Valentines Day Boys :)
And the same to you beautiful Sarah
Great video Guys Happy Valentines Day Andy And Matt
bit of a late comment I know im binge watching all your videos, I love u guys, but I no this place, my home town!! and there are many many abandoned places around this area you should definitely come back and do more!!
Cool 😎
18:39 if you're balancing on a beam who's shadow went past quickly on wall with hole???
I think it could be his finger going over the camera
Just watched the bristol motors one . Loved it
❤️
I learnt to swim in this pool in the late 60's and early 70's. I also did my city & guilds in computing upstairs in the 90's' Such a shame and waste that they closed it.
5:28 What Andy read sound reminded me of Vincent Price in Michael Jackson's Thriller song....Kind of....
Matt you've got a thing about swimming pools, I'm just waiting for a man and his dog to appear xx
Been watching your videos over the last few days and I must say they are very entertaining and you pair have a laugh at the same time, a lot of people who do what you pair do ( saying no names) being on RUclips has gone to there heads but not you ....its a pleasure watching your videos keep them coming thanks for the uploads...
It really means a lot things like this we put a lot of time and effort in and although we really enjoy ourselves it is lovely to see and hear comments like this
Super excited! 😆

Thanks for making me laugh, you guys always cheer me up, looking forward to the next video first thing I do on a Sunday am, make coffee, put on my favorite RUclips channel, FBHS, I get sad when the video is nearly over, I could watch you guys all day.

Can't wait... But what's new there. Best channel... Ever!!
You need a remote control car w/camera for places like that tunnel. Still like to know what it was used for.
Dying to know what Andy's joke is now.
I WANT A T-SHIRT!! 🥰❤️❤️
Excellent explore lads funny as 🤣🤣👍
😘😘😘
Ready and waiting 😁🤗👀
Wow Mike Brennan solved the mystery!! I all makes sense now!!! It was a great video !!!!! Thank you for not taking some risks!!!! Never want you to be hurt in any way!! Lobe you guys...,. Is there any places in Dundee??? My honey is from there!
Stay safe please!!!
With Love

You've got to love the safety measures at this pool.
"If you find yourself drowning, please promptly exit the pool and press the drowning alarm. Someone should be with you shortly."
"In case of drowning, please use this rope to rescue yourself or others. Just kidding. No rope for you. You should have learned to swim. Idiot."
I can't wait to see what other safety instructions they may have had in this building. Perhaps something along the lines of:
"In case of fire, jump in the pool. Just remember, there's no safety rope." 😉
Hi Matt & Andy,
Great video guys,always love watch your channel.
Always see some beautiful places & get a good laugh from your humor too.
You really need to make shirts that say "To be fair"
I really, really like the bit of history/info look up afterwards. But there was none this time. It would have been cool to maybe hear about how these pools worked 🤔
Playing catch up guys! I just thought you might be interested in a voice I heard at 28:33 or there abouts. It definitely wasn't you two!
Heavy petting meant no finger blasting, 20p ago Becky on a Saturday morning! It was worth going without a hot soup though. 😂🤣👍🤪🤪
😂😂😂😂😂
Hey guys love this video,love the exploration too bad you couldn't get through to the tunnel would have like to have seen the rest and then to find out it goes to the tower wow!! And yes yes I just kept think wall don't come ohhh so close LOL..take care guys ..
Christ Matt you have gone gray as a badger 😂 great explore as always lads👍
Audience participation, obviously 😳🤪
Would the walkways be for the coal trucks to take coal from outside to the boilers? Just going off with the cart wheel that looks like it run on rails and the chimney it obviously for the smoke from the boiler.
For how long this has been left abandoned, it's looking in really good shape.
its been closed just over 10 years or so, the building I believe is up for sale but sadly the whole town is falling down needs millions spending on the area
Real shame! Lived close to it for years and swam my only ever Length in that pool during my swimming lessons, I’m a shite swimmer so the staff were clearly on point, I’ve never done another since that day in 2007! 😆. Can I also say it’s absolutely shocking to see something interesting in Tunstall aside from the run down high street lol.
Great video and definitely got a new subscriber, the banter was great (and the head banging! 😂)
Look in to the mud flood theory. Jon Levi has good content. It will explains the tunnels and underground stuff. X
Andy Make Sure to Take Flowers & Chocolates
33:44 is this the original Victorian furnace flue to the chimney, presumably this is how they used to heat the water? It looks a bit sooty anyway.
Very interesting that was.
Another fantastic video x
Lol your nose is a beacon in the dark 😊
Funny banger liked it alot keep em coming boys
LOL...😂🤣90 yr old theirs still hope for me.
Ppi... Pmsl... Great video though my sides ache... 😂😂😂
