Help us Save Shoalstone from the Waves…

what’s happened?

A crack is widening in the decking by the sea wall because the northwest corner of the pool is being pulled away toward the sea.

 

Every tide takes more of the 1920s concrete foundation away.
A violent storm could sweep it away overnight.
All our annual patching and repair work can no longer keep the waves back.

 

what’s next?

The engineers can stabilise the concrete and secure the northwest sea wall. The pool will be safe for the next generations.

WE NEED £500,000 TO FIX THE POOL

MAKE NOW THE TIME YOU GET INVOLVED… BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!

It could do with a clean but seeing as we went the end of September then I really don't have any argument. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Supported with a small car park, the pool and beach are a classic attraction for family usage. A nice restaurant supports the area as well.
