The city became a spa with the Latin name Aquæ Sulis waters AD 60 when the Romans built baths and a temple in the valley of the River Avon, although hot springs were known even before then. Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th century and became a religious centre; the building was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of water.

Typical Georgian period houses in Bath.
I was, at the time, staying at the pub you can see at the end of the road - getting a chance to visit the town, famous from the Austen novels which I grew up with, when my husband was there at a conference.

The Victorian spa town of Matlock Bath, or the Derbyshire Riviera. To the left you can just make out the Round House (its really hexagonal) and to the extreme right the cable cars are visible that take visitors to the Heights of Abraham. The shot is taken from the road to Starkholmes overlooking the River Derwent.

Since 757 AD, three different churches have occupied the site of today’s Abbey: first, there was an Anglo-Saxon Abbey Church, pulled down by the Norman conquerors of England soon after 1066. Then, a massive Norman cathedral was begun about 1090 but was larger than the monastery could afford to maintain and by the end of the 15th century was in ruins. Finally, the present Abbey church was founded in 1499, the last of the great medieval churches of England

Vista de la ciutat anglèsa de Bath des de Alexandra Park, al sud.
La vista és força espectacular, però deu ni do, la pujadeta...
========================
The city of Bath seen from Alexandra Park. The viewpoint is quite nice, but the path that leads to it is quite steep.
A bath from World War II, when Hurst Castle was used to defend Britain from invasion by sea from the Germans.
This is a close-up photo of a shower skin scrubber. I love the texture and copper colour of the background.
