EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Stockton Baths, Stockton, 30th September 1998" we are transported back to a nostalgic moment in time. Lifeguard and Leisure Assistant Jimmy Mannion stands tall at the edge of the pool, his watchful eyes fixed on the last swimmers completing their lengths before the closure of this beloved swimming haven. The year is 1998, and as we delve into the depths of this image captured by Ian McIntyre, we can almost feel the bittersweet atmosphere that hangs in the air. The Stockton Baths have been an integral part of countless memories for locals and visitors alike throughout its existence. However, change is inevitable, and today marks a significant milestone - it's closing day. As we take in every detail within this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, our minds wander to all those who have splashed joyfully within these waters over the years. Laughter echoes off tiled walls while children learn to swim under Jimmy's watchful gaze. Friends gather around deck chairs sharing stories and soaking up summer rays. This photograph encapsulates not only a physical space but also an emotional connection between community members and their cherished swimming spot. It serves as a reminder that places hold profound meaning beyond bricks and mortar; they become woven into our personal narratives. So let us pause for a moment with Jimmy Mannion as he bids farewell to an era gone by – one filled with laughter, camaraderie, and unforgettable moments shared within these now still waters.
