3 – “Take” the Bath waters at the Roman Baths
One of the finest historic sites in Northern Europe. The Roman Baths must be on any top 10 things to do in Bath list, possibly England! This Roman site was once famed for its therapeutic public bathing and you can still ‘take the waters’ today from the King Spring in the famed Pump Rooms where Jane Austen once danced!
