The Lido

Doon the water fur a swim. This was considered a good day out during the summer holidays.

The Clyde and the Cauther (River Calder) were great attractions for a fun day for all the kids in Blantyre.

Many learned to swim in these rivers, long before they ever experienced a swimming pool.

Bill,

The Lido was not in Blantyre but in Bothwell by the Brig. you can see the Battle Memorial in the background. It was a long walk down the Whistleberry Road to get there, but a welcome swim on a hot day.
