EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1936, offering a glimpse into the St Andrews Brine Baths in Droitwich Spa, Worcestershire. The image showcases the grandeur of this iconic building, which was later renamed St Richards House and now serves as a hub for local heritage and tourism. Built in 1935, this extension to the brine baths became an integral part of the town's history. The architectural beauty is evident from every angle, with its intricate detailing and elegant design. It stands as a testament to the importance of salt production in Droitwich Spa during that era. Today, St Richards House houses not only a Heritage Centre but also a Salt Museum and Tourist Information Centre. This transformation has allowed visitors to delve deeper into the rich cultural heritage of Droitwich Spa while learning about its historical significance as one of Britain's leading spa towns. As we gaze at this remarkable photograph, we are transported back in time - imagining people enjoying therapeutic treatments within these walls during the 1940s or perhaps even earlier in the bustling atmosphere of the 1930s. It serves as a reminder that history lives on through preservation efforts like those undertaken by STEAM Museum of GWR who have carefully preserved this snapshot from our past for future generations to appreciate.
