Discoveries at the Swimming Baths site on Kenilworth Abbey Fields by Bryn Gethin

When archaeological investigations were made ahead of the replacement of the old swimming baths on Kenilworth’s Abbey Fields, there was no expectation of any great finds. However, remarkable discoveries were made of mediaeval walls and foundations of ancient buildings, which meant plans for the new baths had to be altered to preserve these ancient remains.
