Description

The Grandstand at Uxbridge Lido, built in 1935 by G Percy Trentham, is a two-storey structure designed in the nautical Moderne style. Constructed of concrete, it features a flat roof, metal windows, and painted metal railings on the terrace, viewing platform, and staircases. The ground floor has four fixed windows with metal glazing bars, topped by a flat terrace roof with tubular metal railings. The first floor houses a cafeteria with five almost full-height Crittall windows, predominantly featuring 20 metal lights, and a cantilevered viewing platform above, also with tubular painted metal railings. There are flights of stairs at either end, which also have painted tubular metal railings. This grandstand is believed to be one of only two in the country that includes a cafeteria and is built in the nautical style, the other being the Broomhill Lido in Ipswich.

Local climate

Grandstand 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.
