    Take a look inside one of Britain’s oldest swimming baths which is due to reopen next week – after being saved and returned to its former glory.

    The 116-year-old Moseley Road Baths in Birmingham is a Grade-II star-listed Edwardian pool that was opened in 1907.

    Photos show the 21-meter pool with changing rooms positioned down each side and an old-fashioned tile pattern on the wall.

    It’s popular within the local community but has been closed for public swimming since November 2022 due to a fault with the pool heating system.

    Replacement calorifiers were fitted earlier this month, and in the meantime, volunteers have been working hard to get the baths ‘spick and span’.
