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?

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.
