The Bolton Turkish Baths, Great Moor Street
The Richmond Terrace baths in Blackburn (Fig 13.17) and those at Great Moor Street in Bolton (Fig 13.18), both designed by architects Stones & Gradwell, are considered to be in the Queen Anne style. Of these, only the Bolton building survives, with its strong stonework indication of purpose outside,
and a few remaining vestiges of ‘Saracenic’ design inside. It has since been used for a variety of purposes, including a police station.
