This building housed the pit-head baths for the Eastern United Colliery in Ruspidge, Forest of Dean. The entrance to the underground workings was through the buildings immediately opposite on the other side of Ruspidge road. Now, it is owned by Runnymede Dispersions, who make inks and coloured coatings from mineral dyes mined in the Forest of Dean.
