Positive news from the Saltdean Lido Campaign

The campaign has this week submitted an application to English Heritage for the listing category to be upgraded from Grade II to Grade II*. If granted, and should any planning application for the site be submitted, this would require the Council to give special consideration to the Lido as a "particularly important building of more than special interest".

It is also reported that Sir Terence Conran is supporting the Campaign, and his project architect, Paul Zara, who was also behind the refurbishment of Embassy Court in Hove, is working free of charge to draw up sympathetic plans to save the Lido.
