Welcome to Cirencester Open Air Swimming Pool

A charitable venture run by volunteers for the benefit of the community

The Pool is now closed until May 2025. Thank you for your support

Cirencester Open Air Swimming Pool, first opened to the public in 1870 is set in a picturesque location on Riverside Walk, close to Cirencester Park. The pool, which is open from mid-May to mid-September, is 27m long. There is also a children's pool (depth 0.5m) adjacent to the mail pool. Water for both pools is supplied from a natural spring close to the pool and heated to an average temperature of around 26°C. Surrounding the pool is a large patio area with benches and tables for relaxing together with a tuck shop serving hot and cold drinks, snacks and ice creams. 
Please note that the pool is located in a pedestrianised area with no vehicular access. However, there are numerous public car parks within a short walking distance from the pool.
