Victoria Baths

Those of you based in the UK have probably heard of Victoria Baths since it won the 'Restoration' TV series in 2003. Despite the baths being open to the public on the first Sunday of the month (between April and November), I had never visited. It was somewhere it had never occurred to me to visit, but I had an email about a craft fair being held there on Sunday, so off we went. And I have to say, it was well worth a visit - please go if you get the opportunity. The Edwardians certainly knew how to build an impressive swimming baths!


The building itself is beautiful enough, but once inside it's even more amazing. Here are just a few of the photographs we took.
