Just a little walk down the hill
A handy milestone in a wall opposite the Royal Victoria Park in Bath. Presumably this was a more exclusive part of the town when the railways were first established, and more likely to be the home of typical passengers.

Despite appearing older the Temple of Minerva was built as a pavilion for the Wembley Empire Exhibition of 1924, it was then demolished and rebuilt in Victoria Park in Bath in 1926. It was designed by local architect Alfred J Taylor. The words AQUA SULIS appears in the parapet on the south front and CITY OF BATH to the east side. The building is Grade II listed, see: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1394765

Temple of Minerva
An informative plaque inside the temple explains the early history of this little building in the Botanic Gardens of Royal Victoria Park. In the very recent past, the temple (which was simply open to the elements) has been fitted with glass doors and the interior is now an educational area. See Image] for the video show.
