Victoria Baths with attached forecourt walls, Hathersage Road, Longsight - Manchester
A former public baths complex dating from 1906. A major programme of repairs continues, led by the Victoria Baths Preservation Trust, with external repairs to the front block and Gala Pool now completed. A variety of public spaces are available and in regular use for multiple events whilst other areas await restoration. The females pool needs extensive repairs. The Trust have undertaken a heating study for the site and continue to work on establishing a robust long-term strategy for the building, including analysing patterns of use, access needs, and producing a prioritised work plan.
