Exterior of the building in the 1990s, around 50 years after the baths closed. The entrance to the women's baths is down the passageway behind the pedestrians. More about the baths can be found at https://www.victorianturkishbath.org/_6DIRECTORY/AtoZEstab/London/NorAv/MEng.htm
Ground floor frigidarium with part of 1st floor balcony. A decorative fountain is at the rear behind which three windows overlook the internal passageway between the men's and women's baths (see plan following).
Looking up at the decorative ventilator grille leading to a cupola on the roof.
Plans of the baths from R Owen Allsop's book 'The Turkish bath: its design and construction' (1890). I have tinted the women's baths yellow to emphasise their size relative to the men's baths. More about these baths at https://www.victorianturkishbath.org/_6DIRECTORY/AtoZEstab/London/NorAv/FEng.htm
