General notes
A photograph of the front of the Thompson Centre, taken from the edge of Parker Lane. The centre was opened in 1974 at a cost of £1.25 million, which was donated by William Thompson who belonged to a local textile producing family. The centre contained a baby pool, a diving pool and a large swimming pool. It also catered for other sporting activities that took place in two large sports halls, including badminton and squash. The centre was later demolished and the facilities moved to a modern, multi-use venue in 2006.
