The Waterside Pool, on the Esplanade, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryde" class="extiw" title="en:Ryde">Ryde</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Wight" class="extiw" title="en:Isle of Wight">Isle of Wight</a> in June 2010. Later in December 2010, the Isle of Wight Council made the decision to close the Waterside Pool by March 2011 in order to save around £250,000 a year it costs to operate as funding to the council had been significantly reduced by central government. Although there have been attempts to keep the pool open, nothing has been formally agreed yet.
