Description
All that is left of the Swimming Baths in Blackrock, Dublin
"BLACKROCK, in Dublin, is the most celebrated sea- bathing place in the vicinity of the capital. The streets are rather confined, but the extraordinary beauty of the country residences, and of the sea-shore, secures to the Rock a long train of equestrian visitors and jaunting cars."
In 1887 the baths were rebuilt in concrete with a large gentlemen's bath and a smaller ladies' bath. The baths, with a 50 metre pool, were well known for their swimming galas and water polo and could accommodate up to 1,000 spectators
