Miners Baths and Canteen

The Miners Baths and Canteen is a Grade II* listed building, designed in the Modern Movement style. This single-storey concrete structure features an asymmetrical plan made up of a series of white rendered blocks of different sizes and heights, topped with flat roofs and predominantly metal framed rectangular windows. The canteen block is one storey high, with a concrete porch that has three windows on one side, two on the other, and a continuous run of eight windows wrapping around two sides at the north-east end. The baths are also single-storey, but have roofs at varying levels. The entrance features double wooden doors with reinforced glass, set back into a porch. The windows throughout the building vary in size and arrangement, and there is an iron ventilator chimney.

Inside the baths complex, there is a tiled boot cleaning area equipped with a boot greasing machine and long stalls that include steel piping and air ducts for heating. The adjoining 'dirty locker room' contains steel lockers and benches. The medical centre is a room lined with white ceramic tiles and fitted with medical equipment. The canteen has been refurbished for use as the museum canteen but still retains its original white and green wall tiles.
