It's sad when this happens, but I've lived in various random places in England over the last 2 decades and one of the first things I do when moving to a new area is find one of these little swimming baths for my evening swim. I have to say, outside of city centers we don't seem to be doing too bad still. I think at least 3 of the 5 I've frequented were Victorian era or at least 100 or so years old. E: just did a quick search and apparently of the 116 listed bath buildings, most of which were constructed before 1936, only 52 remain operational or are in the process of being operational. So perhaps you're right. Real shame, these places are often so valuable for the community, especially smaller/poorer ones. (Shout out to Withington baths[1] which was my favourite place in the world back when I was a student) [1] https://maps.app.goo.gl/Lze2wgCF9QtisdmPA https://maps.app.goo.gl/Lze2wgCF9QtisdmPA
