EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1930s and experience the joy and excitement of a day at the Outdoor Bathing Pool in Folkestone, Kent. This stunning photograph captures the essence of a day at the lido, with its vibrant colors and lively atmosphere. The pool, measuring 165 long and 75 wide, is the focal point of the image, surrounded by eager swimmers forming a long queue, waiting for their turn to dive into the refreshing water. The anticipation is palpable, as the brass band prepares to play, adding to the festive mood. The deckchairs, neatly arranged on the grassy banks, beckon to those who prefer to sunbathe and relax. The bunting flutters in the breeze, adding a touch of celebration to the scene. This image is a testament to the simple pleasures of a day at the beach, and the enduring appeal of outdoor swimming pools. Take a moment to imagine the laughter and camaraderie that filled the air on this day, and let the history of this beloved Folkestone institution transport you to a bygone era.
