Thank you to the over 60 people who joined for Tom Boden’s splendid talk about the National Trust’s major project to transform the Assembly Rooms into a major attraction for the city of Bath. Tom, General Manager for the National Trust’s Bath portfolio of properties including Dyrham Park, Bath Assembly Rooms, Prior Park Landscape Garden, Bathampton Meadows and the Bath Skyline, explained that while the Roman story of Bath is well told, there are gaps in the current presentation of Bath’s Georgian story.
The ambitious project will restore the Assembly Rooms building, which was heavily damaged in WW2, and tell the enlightening stories of the people who lived, gambled and danced there. The new experience will use the most modern technology to show how people went about their business in Georgian Bath. For example, visitors will be able to listen to the exciting conversations, stories and gossip of some fascinating characters as they prepare for an upcoming ball. A broader goal of the project is to encourage visitors to extend their stay in Bath by giving them a deeper appreciation of this beautiful city.
The talk was sold out and organised by the trustees of the St Stephen’s Millennium Green Trust and held in the St Stephen’s Church undercroft on Monday 13th October. The funds raised will be used to pay for the upkeep of the much loved St Stephens Millennium Green.

Tom will share his passion for history and Bath, as he talks about the changes taking place inside the Rooms and how the new experience is being developed.
