The NSW Department of Lands gave permission for the baths in 1887.
In 1888 the baths were completed for the coming summer swimming season.
In 1889 Waverley Council paid for dressing-sheds at the baths and called tenders for the lease of the baths.
By-law, in the late 1800s, number 145 of the borough of Waverley declared ‘Any person who, except in a public bath and proper bathing dress, shall bathe near to or within view of any inhabited house, reserve or place of public resort between the hours of 8 o’clock in the morning and 8 o’clock in the evening shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding five pounds nor less than five shillings’.
