History

Tunstall Baths has been covered quite a bit and is a well known spot.

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

The lights still worked.
