The Lido in the city of Peterborough, Cambridgeshire first opened in 1936 and is one of the few survivors of its type still in use in the United Kingdom. A striking building with elements of art deco design, the Lido and surrounding gardens cover an area of roughly two and a half acres (1 ha), lying adjacent to the embankment of the River Nene, south of the city centre.〔Brandon, David and Knight, John ''Peterborough Past: The City and The Soke'' (pp.111-112) Phillimore & Co., Chichester, 2001〕 The land on which the Lido is situated was purchased by the corporation from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners in 1927. The main pool is 8 feet 10 inches (2.7 m) deep or 2 feet 11 inches (0.9 m) at the shallow end and holds 500,000 gallons (2,273 m³) of water. The site, which also includes two other heated outdoor pools (learner and paddling), a large sunbathing lawn, balcony and refreshment area was designated a Grade II listed building in 1992. It is open to the public from late May to early September, closing during periods of inclement weather.〔(The Lido: outdoor swimming pool ) Peterborough Evening Telegraph, 12 May 2009〕 Peterborough Sub-Aqua Club are official tenants of the Lido, renting some of the rooms beneath the clock tower. ==References==
