| Bath, a city in South-west England, lies in the valley of the River Avon among surrounding hills, and grew around naturally-occurring hot springs where the Romans built baths and a temple, giving it the name Aquae Sulis. The city became a World Heritage Site in 1987, and has a variety of theatres, museums, and other cultural and sporting venues, which have helped to make it a major centre for tourism. I have been a fairly regular visitor since my National Service days at RAF Pucklechurch. I spent a couple of weeks at the University whilst studying at the Open University in the 1970s. The city is well worth a visit and has many interesting buildings, including the Roman Baths and the Pump Rooms where you may indulge yourself and have tea ! |
