BATH - The rich people housed in the Royal Crescent, bottom left and the Circus built by the son of the builder for the Royal Crescent wanted to be shielded from the winds off the Atlantic. They were instrumental in having the Marlborough Buildings [top middle] constructed that run N/S and shield the Royal Crescent from the prevailing west winds. No. 1 in the Royal Crescent is a completely restored Georgian. The Circus housed Gainsborough and William Pitt.
