Report - Beechdale Swimming Centre, Nottingham, February 2016

[urbexdevil]

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.

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…

Very nice report looks like a wicked little mooch, can't beat the strange feeling of standing in an empty pool! Might have to venture here soon

Nice work. Looks in very good condition for somewhere that's accessible.

Nice work
Still looks in good condition
The one in Leicester a couple of years back went downhill very fast
