The pump room at night.
The flood lit fountain at the far end of the room dates from the height of the Georgian period of Bath’s grandeur. This was built directly above the sacred hot spring and Roman reservoir.
This photo was taken at night through the French windows of the pump room, which open out into the Abbey courtyard. The high Alter lies 20 feet directly below my feet with the temple lying due west under the present pavement and Stall Street.
