Stained-glass
window, part of the original Turkish baths built in Swindon by the Great
Western Railway in the 1860s as one of the facilities offered to its
workers (and their families) through membership of its Medical Fund
Society. More recently, this part of the premises was converted into
offices.
Although
the baths are still open, there is no longer a separate bath for women;
instead, they use the men's baths at set times during the week.
