Plymouth’s Tinside Lido is set for a major makeover with new plans submitted for restoration and community use
Plymouth: Exciting news is coming from the city! Plans are in the works to revamp the historic Tinside Lido. The goal is to restore the main building and turn it into a cool multi-purpose space, complete with a café and bar.
There’s also a plan for Building B, which sits between the pool and Tinside Cove. This spot could become a youth outreach and watersports hub. It’s a great opportunity for young folks to gain confidence, learn new skills, and explore jobs in the marine sector.
The city council has received an application to demolish and replace some walls in Building B. The current state of the area isn’t great, so a complete refurbishment is needed. The idea is to create a vibrant venue that allows better access to the water.
They’re aiming to keep the charm of the place while making it more functional. The new plans include using traditional materials to ensure the building stays true to its Grade II-listed status. It’s all about making the Lido watertight and usable for everyone.
Now, the planners at Plymouth City Council will take a look at these applications and decide what happens next. There’s a whole list of planning applications submitted this week, so stay tuned for updates!
