Howstrake Swimming Pool –  Onchan Bay Isle of Man. A pictorial view!

My pictures of the Pool site c   AGJ 2018

It was situated in a beautiful position overlooking the bay.  It was a lovely day when husband and I visited and we walked over the site imagining the spirit of the camp and the happiness and relaxation it must have brought.

Even in modern day,  the Lido site is not forgotten and the pool basin served its purpose for other pursuits.

A very informative article of the Howstrake Holiday Camp by Mike Caine was on http://www.mike-caine.com/howstrake-howstrake-camp/
Unfortunately the link has become unavailable now.  It was a lovely history of the Camp.
