A historic lido in a Welsh town which first opened back in the 1930s could be reopened within three years if a £1m project gets the go-ahead. Brynamman Lido has been closed since 2010 but efforts have been stepped up in recent years to bring it back to life.
Known historically as ‘the Baths’, the once-popular attraction opened in 1934 during the Great Depression. Now, there is hope that it can once again be something of a hub in the Brynamman area as communities continue to bounce back after the effects of Covid-19 and various lockdowns.

In what is seen as a key step forward, the Brynamman Lido Committee has been awarded a Project Viability Grant of £10,000 from the Architectural Heritage Fund. This will now pay for an architect, a quantity surveyor and a consultant to work with the committee to produce a feasibility study regarding the lido’s future.
