Description: | The St Pancras public baths opened in 1901 with four pools and a laundry washhouse. It included 129 slipper baths and offered luxurious facilities compared to those in many homes. Designed by Thomas Aldwinckle, it was given a Grade II listing in 1974.
Mike Abrahams, working in nearby Grafton Road, was interested in documenting the lives of ordinary people. In 1981, he co-founded the picture agency Network Photographers. Photographic themes include religion, the National Health Service and international conflict. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | �� Mike Abrahams | Subjects: | work Public services Leisure | Temporal: | 1975 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
