Saltcoats swimming pool started off as a small pool before being reconstructed by the Burgh Council in 1933 to the large pool, shown above. It was opened on 10th June 1933 on the site of the old bathing station that had been a favourite spot for bathers for 50 years. Prior to that, it was the harbour that was the focus for bathers.
The formal opening was carried out by the Right Honourable The Lord Provost of Glasgow at 2.30pm on Saturday 10th June. After a fine spell of weather, the skies were dull and rain fell but that did not deter the programme of swimming and diving that had been arranged.
In its day it was the finest open-air pool in Scotland, with modern changing rooms, showers, and a tea room. It was even equipped with flood lights for midnight bathing, weather permitting. As many as 2,000 visitors would visit the pool on any day during July and August.
However, it had long been recognised that an indoor pool was essential due to the increase in demand and because swimming was an all year round sport. In May 1973 a new indoor pool at Auchenharvie in Stevenston was opened.

The pool in winter. Designed after the Expressive Modernism movement this pool opened in 1967 - Edmonton hadn't seen any architecture like this before. Rumor has it that the pool was the thickness of two tiles short of being classified as an Olympic Sized Pool.

There was a pool at the place we stayed at, which we used every day. This is one of my favourite captures of today. Some of the looks on their faces as they were catching and throwing the ball were priceless!
