This print takes us back to the early 1930s, capturing a nostalgic glimpse of the St Andrews Brine Baths in Droitwich Spa, Worcestershire. The image showcases the grandeur and elegance of this popular spa town during its heyday. Opened in 1888, these brine baths were renowned for their healing properties derived from the natural saltwater springs found in Droitwich. People flocked to this tranquil oasis seeking relief from various ailments and indulging in therapeutic treatments. The photograph beautifully portrays the architectural charm of St Andrews Brine Baths, with its intricate detailing and imposing facade. One can almost imagine visitors strolling along the promenade or lounging by the poolside, basking in relaxation amidst a serene atmosphere. Sadly, as time passed, so did the popularity of traditional spa treatments like those offered at St Andrews Brine Baths. Eventually closing their doors in 1975 after nearly a century of service to wellness seekers. Today, this remarkable photo stands as a testament to an era gone by – reminding us of simpler times when people sought solace and rejuvenation through natural remedies. It serves as a window into history for all who visit STEAM Museum of GWR (Great Western Railway), allowing them to appreciate not only the beauty captured within this image but also gain insight into how public health practices have evolved over time.
