THE future of London's two oldest swimming pools has been plunged into uncertainty.

It is feared that the much-loved Forest Hill Pools in Dartmouth Road, may be surplus to requirements.

The council (Lewisham) has said it has no 'specific' plans for the site which has two 25 metre pools but admits it is evaluating all leisure facilities in the borough.

Seven years ago the South London Press supported the Save Forest Hill Pools Campaign, which successfully fought off an attempt to close the facilities. Now the future of the pools is again uncertain."
