A long forgotten open air swimming pool has been found in overgrown woodland.
The remnants of the lost lido were discovered in a wooded area of Heaton Park by Carl Harris, 57. Carl, who works as a field manager for Sky UK, told the Manchester Evening News: "This goes back before lockdown. We just went for a walk in the woods - I knew of the lido but I didn't know exactly where it was.
"[We] kind of discovered it because the perimeter of the lido is huge, it's nearly 50 metres by 23 metres we measured - the size of an Olympic swimming pool, just about. But where it's located in the woods adjacent to the boating lake, people don't know it's there as it's so overgrown with 60-years of growth.
