The Reg Maxwell Pool (Aylesbury) Experience - Part 1

In 2007 I visited the disused Reg Maxwell swimming pool and gym in Aylesbury, Bucks. I was shocked by what I found. Some six years after closing, the power was on, the lights blazing, the ventilation fans spinning... So this is where my Council Tax goes!

All that area has been flattened mid 2011 it's no a open open car park

@100Thesniper The Maxwell Pool: gone, but thanks to this video, not forgotten.

@alienspratley Judging by the fencing going up around the site, the whole thing will be coming down very shortly. Goodbye Maxwell Pool!

I remeber having my swimming lessons here in year 4! Such a shame to see it in that state...

[SimplyPaul]

@Leybrutal It's about to be demolished, I believe, to make way for a new shopping complex in town. I bet we still don't get an Ann Summers though ;)

[Dav123xyz]

How did it get in that state?

+power left on???

All that tackle left up the top....gym equipemnt going to waste. I've just spent good money on a treadmill...(shows our attitude to heath and fitness)

Used to love that red inflatable slide in the pool when I was two the lifeguard used too let me down it even though I was too young and that kiddie pool used too have frog floats it's the first swimming pool I ever went in when I was 5 months old . Some of my first memories
