art gallery, located at the end of Great Pulteney Street, is used as
the façade of Lady Danbury’s beautiful townhouse.

The square is the backdrop to some key conversations, including
Penelope and Eloise’s discussion on pregnancy, horse rides and
carriage journeys and a post-wedding ride.
GUILDHALL
An 18th-century municipal building in the heart of
the city, the grand Georgian building is often used
in modern day for weddings and parties, making it
rightfully suited for the series’ ball scenes.

The backdrop to a number of scenes, including one
of Simon arriving into the town on horseback. The
cobblestones and colonnades perfectly encapsulate
eighteenth-century Bath.

Another Grade I listed building, the elegant Assembly Rooms were a key part of Georgian society. It was a
place where people met for tea and gambling and also where balls and concerts were held. Quite fittingly,
Lady Danbury’s lavish ball was filmed here.
ABBEY GREEN AND THE ABBEY DELI
The Square, just behind the Roman Baths, is used as the scene for shopping trips and strolls whilst The
Abbey Deli stands in as Modiste dress shop in the series. The girls get their frocks for the balls here and
both the shopfront and interiors are featured.
