Abstract:		 Wrest Park sits in one of the great gardens of England - not the creation of one person or one era, but a garden which has developed incrementally since the late 17th century, retaining important features from a number of eras. It contains a number of significant garden buildings, including one from the third quarter of the 18th century, the subject of this report, which has been variously described as a bath house, a Roman bath, a hermitage and a grotto. It is a good survival of a building type once not uncommon: a place to take a bath within reach of, but not attached to, a country house. It has many features in common with others of its type, notably aspects of a grotto. This report is based on a site visit and archival and printed sources, together with secondary background reading on 18th-century baths and landscapes.
