Public Baths - 01

Designed by Oliver Caldwell 1887; Around 1930, the baths were closed; houses had begun to have their own baths.
The front was altered as the Cafe Marina, with a dance hall; in 1935 there was a fire, and the building had to be demolished completely. From the sign over the door when it was burned, it appeared to have 'no sea water' so presumably had some baths?
Photograph c1910.
The Bath Premises at the west end of the Promenade contain a salt water swimming bath 25 yards long and private baths with hot and cold fresh or sea water.
Does your last sentence in the description refer to the baths pictured, or were there more baths further along? I'm a tad confused with all these baths!
