The Broomhill Pool clock is ticking. 22 months to save the ONLY unrestored LISTED LIDO IN BRITAIN*.
Planning consent for the approved scheme, design, will expire 11 Dec 2027.
Unless spades are on the ground and this scheme is in progress by then, the £250,000 development costs so far will be lost. A twice approved The National Lottery Heritage Fund grant (of £6.8m) will be lost for Ipswich Borough Council and citizens of our town.
*There are 20 listed public lidos in Britain. Only Ipswich’s Grade II listed Broomhill Pool remains derelict and at real risk of being lost.
