This week, member of the Leader's Local Bygones Facebook group, Richard Jones, from Gwersyllt, gets his feet wet looking back at Tuttle Street swimming baths, Wrexham...

The Tuttle Street swimming baths were the first indoor swimming baths in Wrexham and opened in 1901. Built by Wrexham Borough Council, they remained in operation until 1970. At the time of opening, the baths were considered state-of-the-art and were heated using the next door incinerator. The baths have since been demolished.

Many members of the Local Bygones group remembered the baths fondly.

Tony Cooke: "Wonderful memories there of swimming club and galas. We walked there every day from Rhosddu and sometimes twice a day in summer."

Pauline Evans: "Went there from Penygelli School in the 60s, Mr Pritchard would teach us."

Carol Jones: "Used to queue every Saturday morning to get in! Wonderful place."

Ivor Andrew Tweedie: "That's were we all learnt to swim by my dad, who couldn't swim!"

Elaine Roberts: "I never learned to swim, but remember going there, and the smell, and the smell of the leather works, and walking home through Maccies scrap yard. Very happy memories!

Christopher Burns: "I, like so many others, learned to swim there. So many happy memories of the baths. My mother used to take us there and if we were lucky, got a bag of chips from the Beast Market on the way home."

Jo-Anne Bidmead: "My mum used to work on the turn style when you paid to get in. Spent most of my childhood there. Dad also taught kids to swim."
