William Potter's second Turkish Baths, in the centre of Manchester

This illustration of the proposed 'Sultan's Bath' (to be opened as part of Mr Potter's new Turkish Bath Suite) first appeared in his booklet on the bath. The new baths opened on 28 July 1859, but it is not known how closely this design was followed.
