History
The baths were opened in 1890, forming a part of the wider Victoria Institute complex, and still retained many of the original features such as the poolside changing cubicles and viewing gallery up until being closed by the council in 2011 as part of the wider budget cuts that were ongoing. It had been promised that alternative provisions for swimming would be made at the nearby Dimensions complex, but as of 2020 this is still yet to happen. It was one of only a few dozen continuously operating Victorian swimming baths still in existence in the UK

A nice Explore and far from the most challenging, the place isn't the biggest but the pool is still impressive. If it had abit more decay it would probably be a tad better but you can't complain! I didn't check out the front bits since i knew it was belled up. Thanks for @raisinwing for the help with this one.
