Mounts Baths, Art Deco public bath in Northampton, England.

The Mounts Baths features large tiered windows made of reinforced concrete, supported by eight parabolic arches that frame the main pool hall.

Built between 1935 and 1936 by architects J.C. Prestwich & Sons, the Grade II listed building stands on the former site of Northampton's old prison.

The interior design includes stone-colored faience tiles around the pool hall and blue faience tiles lining the pool, creating a cathedral-like atmosphere.

The facility contains a main swimming pool, a teaching pool added in the 1970s, and maintains operational Turkish baths with multiple temperature zones.

The structure represents one of the few remaining indoor Art Deco swimming pools in the United Kingdom, featuring original geometric patterns and ornamental details.
