Description

This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 21 February 1958, page 6: "This standard size swimming pool is the first completed project of the Pohangina Anglican Youth Centre in Ashhurst. Of concrete construction, it was build by voluntary labor in less than four and a half months. The Youth Centre Committee has now turned its attentions to the preparation of a Rugby football field, a cricket ground, and six tennis courts."
