SILVER FOR SHANKLIN SWIMMING POOL MAN

A Shanklin-based swimming pool installer has won an accolade.

In his 50th trading year, Roy Eccott (of RW Eccott and sons) took silver for Specialist Pool Build at the Swimming Pool and Allied Trades Association awards.  The pool was designed for a syncronised swimmer and was installed in a converted double garage.  It includes specialist equipment - an above/below ground water sound system and a guidance compass.
