Medina House, Vernacular architectural structure in Hove, United Kingdom
The three-story building featured a swimming pool and slipper baths, serving as the women's section of the Medina Baths complex along the seafront.
Paul B. Chambers designed and constructed Medina House between 1893 and 1894, opening its doors to the public on September 13, 1894.
The building functioned as a dedicated bathing facility for women until 1946, reflecting the social norms of gender-separated swimming spaces in Victorian Britain.
During World War II, the structure temporarily transformed into a medical facility, providing essential healthcare services to the local community.
Multiple fires in 2013 and 2014 led to the building's deterioration, resulting in its complete demolition in 2018 after years of preservation debates.
