Stow Hill Baths opened in 1890, built on the site of an old waterworks. An early photograph shows a building very different from the brick building seen here. I don't know when the exterior was transformed to its current appearance. The building has had various uses since the baths closed down. In May 2018, the name over the entrance is The Gap Centre. A For Sale board is on the wall.
