1. Title: "A Glance into the Past: Bath Partitions at Downham School, Harlow, Essex (1936)" This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the bath partitions at Downham School in Harlow, Essex, constructed in 1936. The partitions were designed using Plymax standard lavatory cubicles, a trademarked product of Venesta Limited, a leading company in the plywood industry during the 1930s. The Plymax system was renowned for its strength, rigidity, and light weight, making it an ideal choice for educational institutions like Downham School. The plywood boards used in the construction of these partitions were a modern alternative to traditional materials, offering numerous advantages over their heavier counterparts. The photograph provides a detailed diagram of the measurements and layout of the bath partitions. The cubicles are meticulously designed, with each one featuring a slipper bath, ensuring privacy and functionality for the students. The use of Plymax plywood boards not only provided a strong and durable solution but also contributed to the contemporary and sleek aesthetic of the school's bathroom facilities. The 1930s was an era of innovation and progress, and the construction of these bath partitions at Downham School is a testament to the advancements made in materials and design during this period. The photograph serves as a fascinating reminder of the role that companies like Venesta Limited played in shaping the built environment of the time, and the impact their products continue to have on modern-day infrastructure.
