roman guard detail.. if you don't know Bath's a roman spa town, this may look a tad odd!
One of them has been some walking tour maps for Junior Magazine. This is the first in a series of three : Bath
For those not completely au fait with English History and Geography ( a group in which I'd include myself) :
Bath is a city in Somerset, England most famous for its historic baths fed by three hot springs. It is situated 99 miles (159 km) west of Central London and 13 miles (21 km) south east of Bristol.
The city is founded around the only naturally occurring hot springs and Roman spa. The waters from its spring were believed to be a cure for many afflictions. From Elizabethan to Georgian times it was a resort city for the wealthy. As a result of its popularity during the latter period, the city contains many fine examples of Georgian architecture, most notably the Royal Crescent. The city has a population of over 90,144 and is a World Heritage Site.
