It’s ‘Hydropathic’  ;D

If you want to know more just google Harrogate Hydropathic. It’s now The Old Swan Hotel.
Hydropathic Hotels were popular in Victorian times. There was one just round the corner from me - it’s now part of the High School.

In Southport, the Smedley's Hydropathic building became the home of the General Register Office when it moved out of London.
