Jeremy Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 It's a nice idea... the cynic in me thinks that it's all a bit of a pipe dream, but would love to be proved wrong.

PeckhamRose Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 That's amazing! Happy about this. Where the heck is the money for this? I haven't even seen anything mentioned with Peckham Vision but then I haven't been to their exhibition either! Eileen?

keekybreeks Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 The Peckham Vision revolutionary cadre do not exactly seem to be embracing the future to be fair. Rickets and scurvy are probabaly top of their list of demands Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/56558-peckham-rye-lido/#findComment-837808 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortified Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 But rickets is making a comeback.The AJ is by subscription so I can't read the link, but on the face of it this is excellent news.Might help with the rickets too (short duration maximum skin exposure in the right season and time of day), unless people go overboard with the sunscreen.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/8268321/Schoolgirls-rickets-blamed-on-sunscreen.html Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/56558-peckham-rye-lido/#findComment-837876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeckhamRose Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Interestingly I can not open the article now either. I could earlier. Maybe there was a time limit on it.

red devil Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 It's a subscription based magazine PR, they often will let you look at an article for free first time, then subsequent viewings are restricted, the aim being to get you to subscribe...

fortified Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Not being able to read the AJ piece, but being curious about this project, I had a quick Google.After reading about Studio Octopi's proposals for floating freshwater swimming pools in the Thames, I wonder what might happen on the Rye. I mean, I was imagining a basic 'dig pool, add changing room and vending machine' effort which would be fine, but my expectations are now spiralling wildly.

fortified Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Using that link didn't work but finding the article directly through Google does (I've never visited the AJ site before, maybe that's why).The most interesting bit:"The plans include a 50m heated pool surrounded by smaller natural pools that would draw water from the underground River Peck which runs directly beneath the site.Alongside the pools would be single?storey pavilions housing a gym, caf? and community space."Heated pool - take that, Brockwell!

Rocky742 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 When I was a kid during WW2 the 'paddling pool' was full of broken glass and dog mess. Is this the same place?

Otta Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I'm too lazy to look at links. Is this proposed to be in the same spot as the old lido (opposite what was once the King's Arms and is not flats)?

Jeremy Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I think the point is, if the rebooted version had a nice cafe attached selling home made cakes, flat whites (whatever they are), aperol spritz and local craft beers... everyone would realise how much they loved swimming outdoors in the UK.

Otta Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I thought later than that, I was sure at least part of it was there in to the early 90s. Bit doesn't really matter.
