Pells Pool in Lewes, East Sussex. Britain's oldest outdoor freshwater swimming pool
The oldest documented freshwater swimming pool in Britain. Situated in Lewes, East Sussex near the South coast of England and within easy reach of Brighton, the 50 yard (46 metre) pool is open from May to October.
With adult-only early morning sessions and a family orientated main timetable, it's a great option for those wanting to keep fit without swimming indoors, or outdoors in the sea!
I made this little video for Pells as a bit of a thank you for allowing me to film my triathlon training videos there in the summer of 2018.
