This is New Road, Worcestershire’s ground.
Every winter it is flooded. Most Summers it survives.
Last year, it looked like this.

I hope there’s an engineer out there that lost their job and maybe their qualification for that.

It’s been there for years.
Unfortunately, when it was developed no-one thought that having the longest river in the whole of Britain next to the ground, would be a problem.
Epic Fail.

Comment by Miss Field May 2, 2008 @ 1:42 pmYou only get a darwin award, when your actions kill you.
Comment by Suave May 2, 2008 @ 1:51 pmI’m not certain the architect was flooded by the river, whilst building.
would have been funny though
Comment by Miss Field May 2, 2008 @ 2:08 pmThat would have been brilliant!
Comment by Suave May 2, 2008 @ 2:12 pmMaybe the engineer had prior experience building pools.
Comment by 12th Man May 2, 2008 @ 2:30 pmI’d love a swimming pool that big!
That would be acer, than the acest thing, in ace land.
Comment by Suave May 2, 2008 @ 2:36 pmWhy don’t they move the facility to somewhere reliable? Like higher ground.
I think it must have been O’Reilly’s men.
Comment by Miss Field May 2, 2008 @ 2:41 pmThere doesn’t appear to be any space in the whole of Worcestershire, which amazes me.
Comment by Suave May 2, 2008 @ 2:45 pmHere in London (the most densely populated city in Europe), we have two cricket grounds, and about seven world class football stadiums. Yet out in leafy worcs, no space.
It’s a good size for a swimming pool, though the brown water is sightly disconcerting.
