Things to do with an old swimming pool? – Page 2 – Chat Forum

We're looking at a house later that has an old, rectangular swimming pool in the garden. Not sure what condition it is in but, if it's beyond use, what's a good idea for the space? I'm thinking we could fill it in and turf over the top to give us more garden space. Looks to be about 20' x 12' (from Google Earth) The house, itself, has huge potential (Grade II listed, 4000sqft including a 400sqft [s]cellar[/s] cinema room) so trying to think of ideas to appease the wife (if she likes the house but not the pool). Any other ideas?

Fill it with dead wives and whack a patio over the top.

Probably pay for the house if you're charging £3,000 per corpse.

Even with £100K to spend that would be massively cheap around here.

That's a big lump of house for not a lot a grass once you take into account the gimp cage/bouldering pit/skate half pipe/hash den. If not a swimming pool alternative uses would have taken quite a bit of negotiation with the your more sensible half.
