Hathershaw Swimming Baths Oldham
« on: Saturday 24 October 09 05:22 UTC (UK) »
In the early 1920s my father ROBERT COCKCROFT was on the Water Polo team at Hathershaw Baths.Oldham.
The last time I visited there, years ago, there was in the entrance a photo of the team with him in it.
I live in Australia and am unable to revisit, but probably the photo is no longer there!
I would love to have a copy for my Family History I am writing.
Could someone help me please?

Hi Mavis, I assume the Baths are still there and functioing.
Why not write a letter addressed to the Manager/Proprietor of the Baths and aks him about it.  Include you email address as he's almost certainly on email and repling to you is easy that way.

Worth a try.
Let us know how you get on please Cheesy

Hi Mavis,

I was just looking in the 'pools' section of OMBC's website (the local council here) and it does look like the pool is closed to the public.

"OCLL DOES NOT CURRENTLY MANAGE HATTERSHAW, PLEASE CONTACT THE SCHOOL FOR ANY INFORMATION.
This centre is located at the Hathershaw Technology College"
(OCLL is the Leasure facilities department)

I have a friend who works at the school so I will ask her if she can find out if the picture is still around anywhere, but its the half term holiday next week so she is not in work.
