Re: Rothesay - Public baths.
Used to go to the Long Street Swimming Baths in Cape Town,almost lived there in both Summer and Winter as it was all closed and used nice warm Water. Heated Pool,also had Turkish Baths and more!
This was around the 1952 to 1957 era,and its still going strong!But Built long before that!
Had lovely Diving Board too,just loved that!
Its been kept so well!
Cheers
