Moseley Baths Restored Through Community Power | Birmingham News
from Birmingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
In a stunning act of community spirit, 118 people plunged into the historic Moseley Road Baths pool in 2014 for a single, monumental photo captured by Attilio Fiumarella using a large format camera — a bold tribute to Birmingham’s heritage. The project highlighted the baths’ architectural and social significance, with segregated entrances reflecting past class divisions. Now, after years of advocacy, the baths have secured full restoration funding, including a National Lottery Heritage Fund grant, and will reopen soon with new public spaces. Fiumarella’s iconic image, now part of the Royal Photographic Society’s prestigious international exhibition at London’s Saatchi Gallery, stands as a timeless symbol of unity and civic pride — a reminder that collective action can preserve history for future generations.
