During the eighteenth century the city of Bath experienced a period of dramatic expansion, when an extensive range of elegant uniform streets, landscaped spaces, tall stone-built Georgian houses, & public buildings made their appearance.
There was no master plan for the development of Bath.
Georgian Bath offers an overview of the development of the Georgian city, its beginnings, its emergence, the eighteenth-century social conditions in the city that underpinned its success, & the significance of its architectural legacy.
The book is supported by photographs, illustrations & maps. In addition, three suggested walking tours are offered.
