Bath: Frome’s Illustrious Neighbour
Bath is a major center of tourism, having Roman, Georgian and literary links. So it can take care of itself and needs no puffing from here. But it is a place where anyone coming to visit Frome should also visit. It is only 12 miles (20km) north of Frome and accessible by car from Frome in about half an hour, or by train or coach in about 50 minutes. So here are a few pictures to show Bath’s remarkable elegance. Perhaps we’ll write a little more about Bath sometime.

Before you go, think about this…
The women of the patriarchs, Sarah and Rebecca, are shown in the bible as being barren, meaning they could not conceive. The modern assumption is that they were infertile, but they might have been barren out of choice. They would not have sexual relations with men. Now priestesses in Babylonia, like Catholic nuns and Roman Vestal Virgins, were chaste—they took a vow of chastity that had dire consequences, if broken. Moreover, Sarah, a word meaning a noble woman or princess, is the half sister of Abraham. The pharaohs of Egypt had their inheritance through marriage to their sister, and not in their own right, a symptom of matrilineal society. Here are relics of an ancient matriarchal system expunged by biblical overwriting.
