Community Assembly of Bath

The Community Assembly of Bath is located in a city in Somerset which is part of the Kernow Territory.

Bath became a spa with the Latin name Aquae Sulis ('the waters of Sulis') around 60 AD when the Romans built baths and a temple in the valley of the River Avon, although hot springs were known even before then. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of water from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town in the Georgian era.

The town was later given defensive walls, probably in the 3rd century. After the failure of Roman authority in the first decade of the 5th century, the baths fell into disrepair and were eventually lost as a result of rising water levels and silting.

In March 2012, a hoard of 30,000 silver Roman coins, one of the largest discovered in Britain, was unearthed in an archaeological dig. The coins, believed to date from the 3rd century, were found about 150 m (490 ft) from the Roman baths. I knew I had lost my purse somewhere.
