Description
Uxbridge Lido is a swimming pool built in 1935 by G Percy Trentham in the Moderne style. It is constructed of concrete with a tiled lining and features a unique 12-sided "star" formation. The pool has a broad deep section with angled sides that provide diving space in the middle, along with twin shallow ends. Although the diving boards have been removed, the two platforms and stairs still remain. This lido is the only remaining example of a 12-sided "star" swimming pool in the country and is the second longest open-air swimming pool still in existence in London, with Tooting Bec Lido being the longest.
Local climate
Uxbridge Lido sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 88% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 69% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
