The Turkish Baths in Newcastle have re-opened following restoration works. Napper Architects worked closely with Fusion Lifestyle to complete repairs to original features such as timber panelling, plasterwork, terrazzo floors and walls, and replacement and upgrades to heating and ventilation equipment.

Part of the grade II-listed Newcastle City Baths, the Turkish Baths were originally built in 1928 to a design by architects Nicholas and Dixon-Spain and complement the other facilities in the building including the pool, gym, and fitness studios.

“We’ve worked with expert craftsmen throughout the renovation process to ensure we have retained as many of the original features as possible and we can now provide both a nostalgic and authentic experience for our customers.

The City Baths have been enjoyed by generations of Geordies since they opened in 1928 and we are incredibly proud to say that the Turkish Baths can now be enjoyed for generations to come.”
