Last days of Worthing's old boating pool eyesore

It was a target for vandals before the borough council decided last year to fill it in at a cost of around 23,000.

But once in place, the new lawn is not likely to have a very long life.
It will probably be affected by redevelopment of the Aquarena, which will be demolished after a new municipal pool is built alongside the present facility.
