Museum of Bath Architecture

The Museum of Bath Architecture in Bath, Somerset, England occupies the Countess of Huntingdon's Chapel where it provides exhibits which explain the building of the Georgian era city during the 18th century.
It is owned and managed by the Bath Preservation Trust. The Trust has moved its own offices from Number One Royal Crescent to occupy part of the Chapel while the Whole Story Project is undertaken to reunite Number One with its original domestic offices.
The museum includes a series of models, maps, paintings and reconstructions to show how a typical Georgian house was constructed, from the ashlar stone to the decorative plasterwork. Sections include displays of stone mining, furniture making, painting, wallpaper, soft furnishings and upholstery. A model of Bath on a 1:500 scale gives a bird's-eye view of the city.
The study gallery specialises in books on architecture including the Bath Buildings Record and Coard Collection.
The collection includes several works whose purchase was supported by the Art Fund.
