Have you visited the exhibition running at Bath Central Library? The World in Bath - Georgian People of Colour, is running until 26 Nov.

Discover the stories from the 18th century of individuals that shaped Bath as we know it today. And add a note on the family history board.

Happy #AppleDay. We found this 18th century apple tart recipe that we just had to try.

Would you bake this?

We'll be at the @banes3sg Volunteer Fair next week 📣. If you've ever thought about volunteering for the National Trust at one of our sites in Bath, then we'd love to see you on Thu 22 Oct. We're just one of the 50+ local charities coming together for the #VolunteerFair.
