More about this scene
Bathing machines await customers. A typical machine had a door and a pair of shafts at either end. The lady would enter from the landward side, whilst the horse was attached to the seaward end. Once in the water, the lady, suitably attired to protect her modesty, would leave the machine and bathe.
