TURKISH BATHS Part 1: Upper Class
With the closing of the Cleveland Street Pub, new venues were found for the trade; however, we had to sometimes follow in the steps of Dorian Gray to make contact with the lower class.
In London, anyone entering a Nevill’s establishment was encouraged to set aside reality for the world of the imagination.
This is a TEMPLE OF HEALTH and therefore there is an atmosphere of Peace and Silence, broken only by the soothing sounds of splashing fountains.
You leave the World and its Noise and Bustle behind you. You enter an Atmosphere of Repose. Let the spirit of the place enter your mind.
