SynopsisThis year marks the 25th anniversary of Bath's inscription with UNESCO as a World Heritage site. It is recognised for a number of Outstanding Universal Values (OUVs), including its extensive Roman remains, its Georgian town planning that is documented as "a masterpiece of human creative genius," its landscape setting and the location of the only naturally occurring hot springs in the country. This exciting new book will focus on 25 locations throughout the city that have been identified as embodying elements of these OUVs and will be richly illustrated throughout with historical images from the archives of Bath in Time. The book will set out to interpret and identify the uniqueness that is Bath, and will serve as a valuable guide to anyone wanting to explore the city and uncover the fascinating stories behind each location., In December 1987 UNESCO bestowed its greatest honour on Bath when it declared the city a World Heritage Site for its outstanding cultural heritage - including its natural thermal spa waters - and landscape setting. Bath was one of the fi rst ten sites to be recognised in the United Kingdom and received its award along with Blenheim Palace, Hadrian's Wall and the Palace of Westminster.Published to coincide with the 25th anniversary of Bath's inscription as a World Heritage Site, Water, History & Style is a celebration of Bath's Outstanding Universal Values. With informative and lively text by Bath scholar Dr Cathryn Spence Water, History & Style explains the significance of UNESCO's award in the context of Bath's economic, social and architectural history. The 25 locations and themes are richly illustrated with a wealth of fascinating historic images representing Bath's six millennia of human history., With informative and lively text by Bath scholar Dr Cathryn Spence Water, History & Style explains the significance of UNESCO's award in the context of Bath's economic, social and architectural history.
