The Bulletin  

SOME WOMEN ARE LADIES — PAGE 27  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 76—No. 3943  

Wednesday, September 7, 1955  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W„ Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

No. 262: the Homeland Series by The House of Seppelt.  

IN THE GRAND PUMP ROOM OF BATH MANY FAMOUS MEN HAVE MET  

THE Georgian city of Bath lies in the Avon valley at the junction of the  

Memdip range of hills and the Cotswolds in Somerset. It is essentially  

an 18th-century city, the finest example in existence of the civic-planning and  

dignified architecture of that decisive period in English social development.  

Its handsome streets and magnificent buildings, such as the Royal Crescent,  

the Circus, Queen Square. Pulteney-street and the Parades, are monuments  

to that great architect, John Wood. He and other architects of the 18th  

century, who built these stately edifices, appreciated the natural beauties of  

the situation, and realised the possibilities of the honey-colored Bath stone  

as building-material.  

One of the finest and most widely-known buildings in Bath is the Grand  

Pump Room, built in 1797 to replace an earlier one of 1706, which stood on  

the site of the Roman Temple of Sul-Minerva. During excavations many  

Roman relics were discovered, the most important of which included bronze  

head of Minerva and fragments of stone-pediment, on which was carved  

representation of the head of the Gorgon Medusa. In the spacious interior  

of the Pump Room, where the waters are served for drinking, is statue of  

Beau Nash, the self-appointed master-of-ceremonies in the early 18th century.  

He organised entertainments and attracted society to Bath, which became the  

resort of fashion and the leading health-spa in England,  

The Pump Room incorporates modern bathing-establishment, where the  

famous hot-springs rise at temperature of 120 deg. F. at constant daily  

flow of half-a-million gallons of the most highly radio-active mineral-water  

the British Isles. The Hot Springs Physical Treatment Centre is one of the  

finest in Europe.  

At the height of its fame Bath attracted many people famous in litera-  

ture, art and science, or in the service of the State, such as Admiral hillip,  

founder of Australia, who lived at No. 19 Bennett-street. Other famous names  

associated with Bath were Gainsborough, Jane Austen, Dickens, Wordswoit  

Goldsmith, Sheridan, Fanny Burney, Mrs. Siddons, Chatham, Burke ana  

Clive of India.
