EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and transformation in one frame. The Bernie Grant Arts Centre, located on Town Hall Approach Road in Tottenham, Haringey, Greater London, stands proudly as a symbol of progress and cultural significance. The image showcases the rear building of the arts centre, which was once home to the iconic Tottenham Public Baths. Built in 1905 and closed in 1991, these baths were a hub for sport and recreation for generations of locals. Standing alongside this historic structure is the original chimney that served as a reminder of its past. The juxtaposition between old and new is strikingly evident here. The modern architecture of the arts centre contrasts beautifully with the industrial design elements from yesteryears. It serves as a testament to how buildings can be repurposed while retaining their historical charm. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of our rich heritage but also our ability to adapt and evolve with time. The Bernie Grant Arts Centre now provides entertainment and artistic experiences for all who visit it. Through this image by s imon Inglis from Historic England, we are transported back in time while simultaneously appreciating the present-day beauty that has emerged from this architectural transformation.
