    Hathersage is in North Derbyshire, its not common to have outdoor swimming pools in Derbyshire. A town called Alfreton had one years ago, that closed in the mid to late 80's

    We have one up in Ilkley. I've never actually been to it but it's supposed to be bloody cold :D. Used to go to our local pool Stechford in Birmingham, had a lick and spent many an afternoon there in my early teens. There was one at Richmond baths as well even had a diving board, that was pretty nippy as well!
