100 YEARS IN THE LIFE OF POOL VALLEY

100 years later, with the Savoy cinema on the site of the old baths. This was built in 1929, replacing Brills’ Baths which had stood here for 60 years. When these Baths were built in 1869, after the earlier buildings had been swept away, the roadway was raised to its present level, at the same time. It is interesting to note that the railings on the left appear unchanged and that Cowley’s Bun Shop has been at No 9 more than a century.
