Leisure
Situated at the eastern end of Penzance's promenade is one of the jewels in Penzance's crown - the iconic art deco Jubilee Pool. Opened in 1935, to celebrate King George V's Silver Jubilee the pool is testament to Penzance's standing as one of the country's premier holiday resorts of the time.
The pool (or lido as such open air pools are known) is a striking piece of architecture that does justice to its location on the tip of Penzance's "Holy Headland".
