Starbeck pool closed because of a leak

A faulty pipe drained the swimming pool overnight on Tuesday April 14. The council said it could take two to three weeks to repair.

Harrogate Borough Council are currently looking at moving activities and lessons, to one of its other pools and people will be notified of any changes.

Lois Toyne, Head of Culture, Tourism and Sports said: “Due to unforeseen technical problems we have had no alternative other than to close Starbeck Baths.

“We would like to apologise for any inconvenience that this has caused to users of the pool. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and will confirm the re-opening date as soon as we are able.”
