About Community Sauna Baths Stratford
The site is a community garden off Penny Brookes Street, and after dark the saunas stand against the lit towers of Stratford. Brenda and Iona are reached up a few steps, while the accessible sauna has a level entrance and benches on three levels. The cold plunges sit together on what the operator calls the plunge island, climbed into by a pool ladder or a short stair with a handrail. Bike racks stand inside the site, and a slight slope runs from the front entrance to the saunas.
