Ironmonger Row Baths (1930s, now Grade II listed) housed a public washhouse, slipper baths, swimming pools (above), and Turkish Baths. After extensive refurbishment in 2010-12, it reopened with modern facilities and a beautifully renovated 30.5m pool. (It has been suggested it was the inspiration for the run-down, council-owned Turkish Baths in the East End of London where five women meet in Nell Dunn's 1981 play, Steaming.)
