It is hard to believe how much things have changed, especially when I compare it to how it used to be when I was a young girl growing up in 1950s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I lived at 34 Penny Street in Salford. The house was typical of its time, having two bedrooms, a kitchen and a living room. We had no central heating, no hot water in the kitchen (unless you boiled a kettle\/pan), and no bathroom. The toilet was situated in a small outbuilding in our back yard.&nbsp;Obviously, access to bathing was a problem. Some of my neighbours had tin baths hanging in the yard, but the logistics of boiling water to fill them wasn&#8217;t practical.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution was to go to Hodge Lane Public Baths once a week. I was taken there by my mum, along with my two brothers. We had to take soap, towels, and a clean set of clothes to change into. It cost thruppence.&nbsp;<br><br>Whilst mum went off to chat with friends, she left me, aged seven years old, with my younger brothers, who were aged five and four. In those days, it wasn&#8217;t unusual for an older child to look after younger siblings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/711a4f6d40d4add019710247bb20d103.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1180\" style=\"width:248px;height:332px\" width=\"248\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/711a4f6d40d4add019710247bb20d103.jpg 352w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/711a4f6d40d4add019710247bb20d103-239x320.jpg 239w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/711a4f6d40d4add019710247bb20d103-224x300.jpg 224w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 248px) 100vw, 248px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Hodge Lane Wash House, entrance.

Although her name escapes me, I can still distinctly picture her. She wore a plain brown dress, a pinny that had faded flowers on it, a headscarf tied on top of her head and black, flat, sensible shoes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I remember the most about her though was her loud,&nbsp;authoritative voice that you wouldn&#8217;t dare disobey,&nbsp;\u201cNO MESSING ABOUT!\u201d ringing through the rooms, putting the fear of God into us.&nbsp;In those days, children didn&#8217;t answer back.&nbsp;It was obvious we were there to get clean, not to have fun and play. Every so often she would pop her head in to check in on us &#8211; I highly doubt she did that with adults!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being the eldest, I had the privilege of using the bath first, then when I got out, my brothers went in the same water, one after the other. We could hear people shouting \u201cMore hot water in number three please!\u201d but we never asked for more hot water as we didn&#8217;t dare risk being shouted at. There were eighteen cubicles that contained baths and they were always busy, very much appreciated in the community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00215.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1167\" style=\"width:341px;height:262px\" width=\"341\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00215.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00215-320x246.jpg 320w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00215-300x230.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Hodge Lane Wash House, bath cubicle or &#8216;slipper bath.&#8217; Photographed in November 1979.

It was rare to have a washing machine at home then, but before my mum eventually got a twin tub and mangle, she used to do her laundry here too.&nbsp;<br>Children were not encouraged to go into the laundry, but often my mum would sneak me in. Going down the corridor was a small window, where tickets were purchased. Mum used to tell me to be quiet and duck under the window. Once inside, I had to sit still on a pile of washing. Nobody queried a child once inside as they knew how difficult it was to leave one at home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"426\" height=\"482\" src=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00232.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00232.jpg 426w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00232-283x320.jpg 283w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/08\/MM00232-265x300.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Hodge Lane Wash House, drying cabinets.

Stifling hot, incredibly noisy and crowded with women, busying away whilst chatting and laughing. First of all, you went to the stalls where collars, cuffs and overalls were scrubbed.

After the opening ceremony the Manchester Guardian declared that it was the largest baths in the country (Manchester Guardian, 19. January, 1928, p. 13). At the time, the baths were part of a new scheme initiated by the city of Salford to offer swimming baths in addition to \u2018slipper baths\u2019 (freestanding baths tubs). The building was so large and so innovative because it had to fulfil \u201ca long-felt want in one of the most densely populated districts of Salford.\u201d (Manchester Guardian, 19. January, 1928, p. 13).\nMore information on the building can be found here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/manchestervictorianarchitects.org.uk\/buildings\/slipper-baths-and-public-wash-house-hodge-lane-salford\">https:\/\/manchestervictorianarchitects.org.uk\/buildings\/slipper-baths-and-public-wash-house-hodge-lane-salford<\/a><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The images in our blog post were taken from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.salford.photos\">Digital Salford<\/a> that is part of the collections of Salford Museum and Art Gallery.
