I used to have swimming lessons at the baths in 1958 . I think it was a Sunday morning. I was 7 yrs old and I would catch the 41 bus , on my own , to get there from Wychall lane I was a really keen swimmer and I loved going there. When I was older I graduated to Northfield baths.

Harold Lea was my great uncle and my Father, James Charles Berwick, worked in his uncles Heeley Road shop for many years. As a child I sometimes went to see him at work and I remember the nurses from Selly Oak Hospital bringing their shoes in for repair. I loved to see them in their uniforms with flowing navy capes.
Very fond memories.

In reply to Sue Davies.

Hi Sue, sorry for the delay. Yes, we can arrange a group tour by appointment. Mondays are best when there is less room hire so you can see more! Please get in touch with me via hello@stirchleybaths.org and i’ll check availability with our volunteer guides. The price is £3 for the tour. There is also a cafe on site.
Best wishes, Suzanne Carter

Can these tours be booked on any other day? I belong to a ladies group and we like to visit local places of interest, we would love to do the tour but find Sundays difficult for public transport. There would be a group of us , numbers not confirmed until we have a date but would be happy to pay in advance.
