' Manor Place Baths (Grade II listed). Victorian baths built by the vestry of Newington to improve public hygiene and health. The building later became the storage depot and offices for the Borough's Division of Public Works. It began to fall into disuse as public baths in the decades after the war as most apartments in the area began to have bathrooms installed. It was used by locals to do laundry up until the 1970s. The baths closed as a public facility in 1976 but continued as a boxing venue until a final show in 1978. '
