Baths

Baths.

The fresh water baths, which are the property of the Council, are well supplied with fresh water at all times except during very dry seasons, when salt water is pumped up from the harbour. The baths are situated immediately behind the market, and are in every way creditable to the City. The charge for bathing is a penny ordinarily, but when the sea water has to be pumped this charge is doubled. Twopence is the regular charge at the salt-water-baths, which also are very fine. These are situated near the yards of the Kauri Timber Company, in Customs Street West.
