Offering guided tours, public open days and special events from March/April to October/November, Victoria Baths is a unique heritage attraction and events venue.

This Grade-II listed former swimming baths is a real Victorian delight for visitors of all ages. Victoria Baths first opened in 1906 and was built to improve the health of the local community. Now, although not operating as a functional swimming pool, the building has undergone a period of restoration and opens regularly. Known for its stunning internal features – multicoloured brickwork, mosaic flooring, stained glass and terracotta decoration – the restoration on this fascinating building continues.

Victoria baths hosts a variety of special events – literary events, weekend festivals, film screenings and one-off swimming sessions – alongside guided tours and family open days. The venue is also available for hire and is licensed to accommodate wedding ceremonies too.
