The restoration of Templemore Baths in east Belfast, the last functioning Victorian public baths on the island of Ireland is coming close to completion
The Templemore Baths are based in east Belfast and have been functioning for almost 140 years
The new building will link "sympathetically and softly" with the original, according to site manager Diarmuid Mullan.From soap to swimming Workers faced a multitude of previously-hidden problems, including dry and wet rot, asbestos, decaying brick, structural movement and a loss of original features.Those include a central cavity wall, which was highly unusual for the era, as well as beautiful glazed brickwork and a mixture of Flemish and English bonding.
The team's aim was to reuse as much of the original materials as possible, minimising the carbon footprint of the restoration and "retaining a much more visually-pleasing end product".
