Cleveland Pools has celebrated it success as a winner of the prestigious European Heritage Awards / Europa Nostra Awards, its regeneration being one of just 30 projects to be honoured as an ‘outstanding heritage achievement’, from a wide-ranging field of applications from 21 countries across the European area.
Cleveland Pools writes:
Europa Nostra Awards judges highlighted that the restoration of the Pools had been ‘driven by the local community’. They praised the use of ‘green energy and a holistic approach to reinstate the site’s original function while adapting it to 21st-century standards. The restoration of the Cleveland Pools in Bath is a good example of rescuing open-air pools for northern Europe, and is a great example for other similar sites across the continent.’
