Park Street, Ripon,

First opened in 1905 Ripon Spa Baths reflected
the Edwardian belief in the two H's: if anything
was to do you any good it had to Hurt and taste
Horrible! Visitors paid good money to be
electrically 'shocked' in the immersion baths
and cleansed by foul tasting sulphur water.Today the elegance of this era remains in
the carefully preserved Pump Room, now the
foyer, which features a stained glass scene of
the historic presentation of the spurs and
Ripon's famous horn blower. Today you'll find
all the amenities and facilities you'd expect of
a first class swimming pool. Battenburg Health
Suite for sauna, sunbeds and massage located at
the Baths, limited car parking and refreshment
vending also available.
