VICTORIAN TURKISH BATHS: London: New Broad Street: corner of the cooling room |

A corner of the cooling-room at

Nevill's New Broad Street Turkish Baths, London, c.1895


Double cubicles in the cooling-room		Closeup of the cubicle behind the pillars
Cubicles in the cooling-room just before the baths opened in 1895
These carpeted cubicles are designed to house two couches, an occasional table and an ornate mirror. To the right of the left hand image can be seen a pile of fresh loin cloths. The view of the cooling-room shows the opposite end to that shown on the postcard published about ten years later. The tiles were manufactured at Jackfield in the Ironbridge Gorge by the Craven Dunnill firm, and these photos were included in the company's catalogue. < Photos: © The Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust, from whom fine copies are available for purchase.
