Local groups in Stirchley were invited to see how renovation work is progressing inside Stirchley Baths.
Although in its early stages, the work undertaken so far is:
The removal of asbestos, making the building safe structurally, so that work can be carried out.
The removal of the roof to enable access to a crane, which arrived just before our visit, and the erection of internal scaffolding.
The Video below shows the state of the baths internally and magnitude of the work that needs to be carried out.
