Heritage Open Day - Sunday 10 September 2023


Update Statement - 19 June 2025

When Cleveland Pools reopened in September 2023, we never thought we would be closing just four months later. Sadly, flooding in January 2024 caused substantial damage to the plant room (and the plant and machinery in it which is required to operate the pools) and to the surrounding pool area and we have been closed ever since.

We want to reassure our local community, volunteers and supporters that we are doing everything we can to rectify the situation. Since the immediate aftermath of the floods in 2024, we have and are continuing to work tirelessly alongside professional advisors to move this situation forward. Our present focus is on investigating whether there is any damage to the pool structure itself and its connecting pipework (beyond that which is already apparent), which is requiring technical investigation work by specialist contractors, so that we can ascertain the full extent of repairs that will be necessary. It remains our top priority to get Cleveland Pools open and operating once more.

This project was a 20 year effort from a passionate group of volunteers and campaigners. It transformed this majestic Georgian pool into an asset for the community to enjoy once more. We share the frustrations that another summer is here, and no one is able to enjoy Cleveland Pools.

We are committing to providing regular updates through this website while Cleveland Pools remains closed. Due to the ongoing investigations and discussions, we are limited in what we can share. There are no new updates at this time but as soon as we have anything, we will of course update you.
