EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a nostalgic scene from the late 20th century at Blyth Swimming Pool in Northumberland. The image showcases a cash counter and admission kiosk, located possibly in the reception area of the leisure center. To the right of the frame, a doorway is labeled "Women" indicating separate entrances for male and female visitors. The photograph provides an intriguing glimpse into the social dynamics of that era, as it depicts a man standing on the public side of the counter engaged in conversation with a female attendant. Their interaction hints at both professional exchange and perhaps even friendly banter, offering insight into daily life within this community hub. Taken between 1960-1980 by Architects Reavell and Cahill for Historic England Archive, this image evokes feelings of nostalgia while also serving as an important historical document. It reflects how swimming pools were not only spaces for physical activity but also places where people connected and formed relationships. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate its significance beyond mere aesthetics. This photo reminds us to cherish our shared history and recognize how societal norms have evolved over time – making way for more inclusive spaces today.
