About the centre
The Cally Pool has been serving the area north of Kings Cross
since 1895. The original building was known as Caledonian Road
Baths and was built by the Vestry of St Mary, which had some of the
functions of a current local authority. The Baths had three
swimming pools, men's first class, men's second class and ladies.
There was also a laundry and extensive slipper baths.
Inadequate changing facilities led to the building being
completely replaced by a modern facility that was opened in 1981 as
the Cally Pool. There are now excellent swimming facilities with a
25 metre main pool and a very large teaching pool. A sauna and
steam suite and a gym were added in the late eighties and have
undergone several upgrades and refurbishments since then.
The Cally is home to the successful clubs Anaconda, Cally Masters and Tri
London.
