A museum has announced the opening of an exhibition celebrating the 90th anniversary of a beloved outdoor pool.
Peterborough Museum & Art Gallery announced Life at the Lido, a free exhibition running from April 16 to May 30.
The exhibition looks back at the history of Peterborough’s iconic outdoor pool, bringing together memories, photographs, and personal stories from generations of visitors.
Life at the Lido captures the joy and cultural significance of the venue, drawing inspiration from a book curated by Friends of Peterborough Lido.
