- Glaciarium
- Chelsea, London, England. Opened in January 1876 but closed by the end of that year.
Considered to be the world's first rink with artificially frozen ice. Designed by
John Gamgee, it was situated behind the old Clock House in Kings
Road, Chelsea. The ice surface was 40 feet x 24 feet. The rink was for use only by
subscription for "noblemen and gentlemen under certain conditions".
The Illustrated London News of May 13,1876 had
an illustration which showed men and women dressed in high fashion of the period skating
to an orchestra situated in a balcony over one end of the rink. An article in the same
journal described the process involved in creating the ice surface. The floor of the rink,
working from the base up, consisted of six inches of concrete on which was laid four
inches of loose dry earth. A six inch layer of cow hair was on top of the earth and on
this was laid two inch thick timber planks covered with half an inch of tarred hair. A
series of copper pipes were laid on the tarred hair. These pipes were immersed in the
water which froze to form the skating surface. In a machine room, separate from the rink,
a steam engine drove an air pump and kept sulphuric acid in constant circulation which
condensed to a liquid under pressure of 1.5 atmospheres. It expanded in a vacuum which
produced intense cold by the change from liquid to gas. It then passed into the
refrigerator consisting of a copper casing about five feet square with a number of
vertical tubes passing through it. This was submerged in a solution of glycerine in water,
contained in a wooden tank placed about ten feet above the rink floor. The glycerine
flowed by gravity through the pipes in the rink floor and was pumped back into the
refrigerator. The rink and building cost £20,000 to build.
