Originally a commission by the Countess of Huntingdon in 1765, the Methodist chapel on this site now houses the Building of Bath Collection. The main exhibition contains images and models of Bath during its stage of development, and catalogs the architects and builders who influenced its unique style. Visitors will learn about carpentry, stonework, molding, plastering, ironmongery, and even the importance of the door on Bath buildings. A model of Bath on a 1:500 scale gives a bird's eye view of the wonders of the city. A small gift shop offers books and gifts related to Bath and architecture. Groups should book in advance. A study center is available for research on architectural history or building conservation by appointment.
