Camberwell Library and Baths

Site: Camberwell Library and Baths (4 memorials)

SE5, Wells Way

The library is the northern building, pools to the south.  The Library plaque is below the bay window. The Baths plaque is on the white stone between the two entrances. They were laid on the same day.

The entrance to the library is around the northern corner, in what is now Burgess Park. The entrance to the Baths, on Wells Road, is delightfully ornamented with carvings by Gunthorpe and Horsman of mermaids in watery foliage clutching their tails, and faces of a boy and of a girl peering out from behind similar foliage, appropriately above the words 'Men' and 'Women'.
