The authoress Jane Austen (1775 - 1817) spent a great deal of her adult life in Bath. She lived at 25 Gay Street from 1805 onwards. Many of her novels are set in Bath and are based on the social excitement of this city. Bath is as close as England gets to Italy. Its beautiful Georgian buildings are built of the soft, warm Bath stone. The Romans made the site popular by developing the baths, filled with the hot spring water that flows from deep underground.

The house in this bookend is on the hill that leads up to the Royal Crescent and shows simple Georgian elegance in the design, the pediment over the doorway is covered in beaten lead.
