Deer Park Swimming Pool
Sassalla Park, Station Rd, Deer Park
The Deer Park Swimming Pool was order to close in 1972 due to major leaks.
This closure caused a massive protest by the local residents including the support of a number of the local Councillors. They were flighting to have a new pool to be built at the same location however they were not successful and a new pool was built in Taylors Rd Keilor Downs.
The old pool was demolished and the site is now used as a overflow car park when events are held at Sassella Park.
