EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and energy of a large open-air pool in Rhyl, Wales during the 1950s. Located in the counties of Denbighshire and Flintshire, the pool was a popular destination for locals and visitors alike, offering a unique swimming experience with its scaffold diving platform and stands. The image showcases a grandstand and large set-piece synchronised swimming gala or show taking place. Synchronised swimming was a popular form of water entertainment and athletic competition during this era, and Rhyl's open-air pool was known for hosting such events. The high diving board and stands were a testament to the pool's ability to accommodate large audiences, making for an impressive and thrilling spectacle. The photograph transports us back to the 1950s, a time when swimming pools were a significant source of community entertainment and recreation. The use of a scaffold diving platform and stands added an element of grandeur and excitement to the pool, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking adventure and fun. The image also highlights the spirit of camaraderie and community that surrounded swimming events during this time. The grandstand is filled with spectators, all eagerly watching the synchronized swimmers perform their routines with precision and grace. The swimmers, dressed in vibrant costumes, appear focused and determined as they execute their moves in perfect unison. This photograph is a wonderful reminder of the rich history and tradition of swimming in Wales and the importance of community and entertainment in the post-war era. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, one that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
