Comments:
The route marks historical points in the city of Bath. Each plaque has an arrow indicating the direction to the next plaque.
The plaques have quotes from poets and thinkers associated with Bath, or those indicating themes related to the city.

The current plaque marks the Great Pump Room - a building built in the late 18th century, adjacent to the Roman Baths, and so named because water is pumped into it from the hot springs of Bath. Click for sign's details

The quote is from the Greek poet Pindar who lived between 518-438 BC.
