Fears grow for Glasgow's abandoned Partick pool as redevelopment plans loom

After being drained 1997, local planners confirmed the pool was out of use in 1999 - though the building has lain empty since then, falling into a derelict state. In 2002, demolition was threatened for the building.

Hillhead Community Council lobbied Historic Environment Scotland, who then listed the buildings - though no improvements were seen on the condition of the building. Several areas of the structure stand roofless, with extensive vegetation growth throughout.
