Description:The Sauna at the Riverside Recreation Centre in Stafford. This photograph was taken by Stafford photographer Tony Boydon. Seated on the left is Christine Whitfield who was one of the bar staff at Riverside at the time, and later became Bar and Catering Manager.
Riverside Recreation Centre was closed and demolished in 2008; it was replaced by the Stafford Leisure Centre, a new £15 million pound facility which opened nearby on Lammerscote Road in April 2008. In later years there was a major redevelopment on both sides of the adjacent River Sow and the site of the former Riverside Recreation Centre became part of the Riverside Shopping Centre which opened during 2016.
