All Change, Portsmouth Harbour Archive - Originally posted on "The Horse's Mouth" - 2008-03-23 11:07:17 - Graham Ellis
It's so long since I was in Portsmouth that I was quite taken aback by the changes I found there yesterday - a trip to meet a friend of several years standing, and make two new ones. I learned that "The Pyramids" swimming pool, built just 20 years or so ago, has roof problems so severe that it's to be torn down, and I saw the new Spinnaker Tower and Gun Wharf areas.
