Bournville Baths - A Glimpse into the Progressive Vision of George Cadbury
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to July 1909, capturing a moment in time at Bournville Baths. Located in Bournville Village near Birmingham, this swimming pool complex was part of a grand vision brought to life by chocolate manufacturer and social reformer George Cadbury. The image showcases the architectural beauty of the Girls Baths, with its elegant design standing tall against the backdrop of a bustling street scene. Both male and female figures can be seen gathered around, perhaps eagerly awaiting their turn to dive into the refreshing waters within. George Cadbury's commitment to improving living conditions for his workers is evident in this photograph. The establishment of Bournville Village as a new town was driven by his desire to create an environment that nurtured physical well-being alongside productivity. The Girls Baths were just one example of his dedication towards providing recreational facilities for both employees and residents alike. As we gaze upon this portrait-format print from Topical Press Agency's archives, we are transported back over a century ago, witnessing history unfold before our eyes. It serves as a reminder not only of George Cadbury's legacy but also of how architecture can shape communities and contribute to societal progress.
