This engraving, titled "Corporation Public Baths, Ashton-under-Lyne," is an elegant illustration of a late 19th-century public bathhouse located in Ashton-under-Lyne, England. The image was published in The Builder magazine on July 2, 1870, and offers a detailed view of the exterior and interior of the building. The architectural design of the bathhouse is impressive, with a grand entrance and a symmetrical facade adorned with columns and arches. The building's ground floor features large windows that allow ample natural light to enter, while the upper floor is reserved for the bathing rooms. The intricate details of the building's architecture are on full display in this engraving, from the ornate cornices to the decorative friezes. The interior of the bathhouse is equally impressive, with spacious and well-lit rooms designed for various bathing activities. The floor plan of the building is thoughtfully designed, with separate areas for men and women, as well as areas for different types of bathing, such as Turkish baths and plunge baths. The Corporation Public Baths in Ashton-under-Lyne were an essential part of the community during the Victorian era. They provided working-class residents with access to clean water and sanitation, which were crucial for maintaining good health and hygiene. The bathhouse also served as a social hub, where people could gather and connect with one another. This engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of public bathing in Ashton-under-Lyne and the importance of these facilities in the lives of Victorian-era residents.
