Set on a rocky outcrop jutting into the North Atlantic, the Jubilee Pool Lido at Penzance is the largest of only five surviving seawater lidos in the UK. After years of being battered by storms, the Grade II listed Art Deco pool structures were in a very poor state. Faced with the prospect of closure, a group of local people were driven to intervene, and in 2017 the complex was purchased by a charitable community benefit society. The architects have helped steer the project, advising on conservation and heritage, and designing a new caf茅 and community space. Through the group鈥檚 energy and determination, the pools have been restored to their former glory, and their facilities improved to allow them to open year-round.
