"The New Bath, so called because the date of its discovery was later than that of the Old Bath, flows through the bath room of the New Bath Hotel. This bathroom is in the basement and is held by some to be an old Roman bath. The roof is a perfectly rounded arch and there is sufficient volume of water for swimming. This is probably the best place for realising the heat of the thermal water, the rise in temperature on entering the bath is very marked[1]". |
