1976 Heatwave

Would-be bathers Maureen, aged 10, and six-year-old Kathleen Armstrong, found themselves out of their depth when they arrived at Pleasurelad Park, Upperby, Carlisle, children's pool for a cooling dip. Water shortage regulations which came into force in Cumbria this week meant the pool could not be topped up. Using hose pipes in gardens and for car washing has also been banned, 19th August 1976.
