Roman Bath remains can now be admired through transparent stainless steel Vee Wire open grid flooring

The centrepiece of the Roman baths is a pool lined with sheets of lead and filled with hot spa water. It was once covered by a 40 metre high barrel-vaulted hall which in its time was a massive structure. The bath is 1.6m deep, ideal for bathing and has steps on all sides. Bathers would have had benches and small tables around the sides for drinks and snacks.

                                                                                                                                                                

A new walkway has recently been installed, suspended over the Temple Precinct as part of a phased program of visitor experience improvements.  Feilden Clegg Bradley's choice of the unusual stainless steel Vee Wire flooring from Intamesh has proved to be a fantastic success.  The material is robust enough to withstand crowd load with no intermediate structural support, it has a very large open area to give maximum visibility but amazingly it is also heal safe.  It is beautifully engineered with high tolerances so that adjacent panels can be matched perfectly.

The Temple Precinct is one of the great wonders of Roman Britain in Bath, 15 ft below the Grand Pump Room and modern street level.  It houses the original remains of the temple steps, the great alter, and Sulis Minerva, the Roman goddess of the Bath's sacred spring. 1600 years ago her gilded statue once stood within the temple, but is now displayed on the new walkway.  The new step-free, suspended walkway has significantly open up the viewing area for visitors who now have a panoramic aerial view of the monument below.  This is the first stage in opening up the whole site for wheel chair access later this year.
