Experts have been left baffled as to the cause of a calcium build-up which has caused a Cork swimming pool to close for over a year.

The children's pool at the Cork County Council-run swimming complex in Dunmanway will remain closed due to the calcium build-up, which could cause users to slip and hurt themselves.
