Henley Baths

Henley Baths Entrance Sign

Historically, Henley Baths was a local swimming spot.

It is situated amidst residential homes and bordered by a small reserve featuring tree shade.  Accessible via a set of stairs with a railing, the baths offer basic bench seating and additional shade along the water's edge.  Visitors can relish scenic views of the Parramatta River from this charming location.

photo shows the Henley Baths entrance sign. The sun is shining strongly off the water, which sits in the background. The Sign sits promonently in the foreground and there is lush grass all around. There are two trees within the reserve and several in a nearby private garden to the right. There are buildings in the far background beyond the water.

Offset to the left, on the stone platform, there is a wooden table with benches for 6 people. The water is gently lapping at the cut stones that serve as the entry to the water. There is a private jetty in the background and the far background is mostly obscurred by the aformentioned tree. The right of frame is the wider river.

The sky occupies almost the entire upper half of the frame, slightly overcast with strong sunlight shining through, the far right-upper half of the frame contains a tree canopy.
