Sheffield's Glossop Road Turkish Baths:
two regular bathers in one of the hot rooms
< Photo:Sheffield Newspapers Ltd
Two regular bathers in the hot room in happier times. The marble seats were normally covered with bath sheets and bathers rested their heads on the specially shaped wooden head-rests. Here, in 1986, the towels covering the two bathers were reported to have been specially 'worn for the photographer.'
A better view of part of the central floor design can be seen here.
