A public meeting is to be held on Wednesday, November 9 at, The Kings Arms, Abergavenny to discuss the next steps forward for plans to reopen Bailey Park’s swimming pool

The meeting will allow Abergavenny Lido Group the chance to present the findings of its feasibility study findings, design opportunities and reveal projected costs for the project.

“The Abergavenny Lido Group, championing the plans to bring an open air swimming pool back to Abergavenny, is now ready to share the Feasibility Study findings on the completion of this in-depth study,” said a spokesman.

“The findings include outline designs and various options which will be presented at a free to attend meeting to be held at the Kings Arms Hotel, Neville Street, Abergavenny at 19.00 on Wednesday 9 November.

“The summary will include pool site plans and models and projected build and running costs and will include a Q&A session.
