Photos posted on various Social Media groups but without any info. Can't remember any competitions during the years,  late 1950's to early 1960's, when my brothers and I would attend almost every weekend in the summer months = 3d to stay in the baths for the full 8 hours it was open.

This photo shows some of the spectators that were there for a competition.

Extract from a newspaper cutting showing the spectator seating steps down one side of the swimming baths.
