Haggerston Baths in Hackney, London, was opened in 1904 as public baths. The baths were built at a cost of £60,000. There was a single pool, 91 slipper baths and a 60 stall wash house. The Grade II listed Haggerston Pool was designed by Alfred Cross. It was closed in 2000 with an uncertain future. In June 2009 after a long community campaign, a £5m grant was announced from the Department for Children, Schools and Families to refurbish and re-open the pool. The building would also contain community facilities and a GP surgery. Due to the financial downturn the council has had to remove funding for the re-opening of the baths. The Haggerston pool campaign has restarted efforts to find financial backing and public support in an effort to re-open the pool. 〔(Jun 2009 15%3A50%3A58%3A487 ''Cash for historic baths—what the Edwardians did for us'' ) Peter Sherlock 25 June 2009 (''Hackney Gazette'') accessed 27 June 2009〕 == See also == *Haggerston *Dulwich Baths *Camberwell Baths 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Haggerston Baths」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
