Matlock Lido: 'The love for this pool keeps pouring in'

A man's passion project to bring a derelict swimming pool back into use has seen it become a much-loved lido, he said.

The pool at the New Bath Hotel in Matlock Bath, Derbyshire, was abandoned when the hotel closed in 2012 but was reopened after Jason Skipper, a keen triathlete, led a four-year restoration project.

Now manager of the pool, Mr Skipper - known as Skip - said: "I absolutely love this pool and everything it represents."
