Bath is the second largest city in the ceremonial county of Somerset, England, known for its Roman-built baths and Georgian brick architecture. In 2016, its population reached 90.931. Bath is in the valley of the River Avon, 97 miles (156 km) west of London and 11 miles (18.5 km) south-east of Bristol. The city became a World Heritage Site in 1987.
The city became a spa with the Latin name Aquæ Sulis, 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 popular 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 from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town in the Georgian era. Georgian architecture, crafted from Bath stone, includes the Royal Crescent, Circus, Pump Room, and Assembly Rooms.

Bath Abbey is an Anglican parish church in Bath, Somerset, England. Three different churches have occupied the site of today’s Abbey since 757 AD. First, an Anglo-Saxon monastery which was pulled down by the Norman conquerors of England; then a massive Norman cathedral which was begun about 1090 but lay in ruins by late 15th century; and finally, the present Abbey Church.
It's in the holy ghost of air
Between two hands held in prayer
There is a gardless state
Where the real and the dream may consummate
~ Wild Beasts
It was a dream to be here...

Former Empire Hotel, Bath, 8 Mar 2022
Built in 1901 as a hotel, it was described by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner as a "monstrosity and an unbelievable piece of pompous architecture".
After use by the Admiralty from the Second World War until the 1990s, it was then refurbished and made into apartments.
