Guess What This Is?


I'm not telling you! You have to guess.
Oh, alright, I'll tell you.
Maybe tomorrow.{g}

Its a bath at one of the old country houses - either English Heritage or National Trust, but I've forgotten which house! ;-)

It looks to me like a baptismal tank. So I'm guessing it is some sort of chair lift to enable less than able bodied people to get into the tank to be baptised more easily?

Jonathan says it's a baptistry for people who can't use the stairs

Romany said...

I'm afraid that you are all wrong so far!

A clue: it was in the middle of a shopping mall.

Yvonne said...

Well, everyone else used up all my guesses, so I'm waiting on pins and needles to discover what this really is...

It's an over-sized mobile and crib for a large baby who adores park benches, of course. Dorothy just neglected to take a photo of the mattress and bedding:)

I like Heather's answer.

Must be 'modern' art then - no other explanation LOL!

Romany said...

OK, Clue No 2

It was in the middle of a VICTORIAN mall: an arcade.

Pssst! Where were we last weekend?

Debbie said...

Is it a mineral springs bath...medicinal soaking chair thingy? (Aren't I technical?)

Romany said...

Well done, Debbie!

Yes, this was in Buxton, Derbyshire, which was a very famous spa town in Victorian times.

Buxton mineral water is still bottled and sold but the baths have long since closed!

I was going to say an old fashioned way to lower people into a pool for physical therapy. Guess I was somewhat close. Probably had an edge on the guessing too having had a child go through pool therapy last year. LOL

My first choice was a medieval torture chair. My second choice was a primitive elevator!
