Pools on the park current members information
Pools on the Park (previously known as Richmond Baths) is a Grade II listed swimming pool and leisure facility in Old Deer Park in Richmond, London.

The pool replaced the previous Richmond baths nearby which had been built in Parkshot in 1882.

The pool and leisure facility are managed by Richmond Council.
