The Master of the Baths chair was donated in the 17th century, when the water level was higher (notice the orange stain line).  Above the chair sits a statue of King Bladud, the mythical discoverer of the hot springs and founder of the City of Bath.

The Kings Bath itself dates from the 12th century.  It was constructed above the Roman reservoir, using the original Roman walls and oak pilings for support (those pilings are still doing their job 2000 years later).
Great example of the majestic Georgian Architecture, The Circus in the city of Bath Somerset, UK is a circular collection of Town Houses. Dated as old as 1754 AD, best viewed from an airplane.
A visit to the Great Bath makes it easy to imagine Roman life.  You won't want to bathe here though - the Roman's lined their pools with lead plates and channeled the water through lead pipes.

The large pool and ground floor are original Roman constructions, but everything above the plinths are more recent recreations.  In the fourth and fifth centuries visitors to the Great Bath would have looked up at a 130ft (40m) high vaulted ceiling - likely they largest building they had ever seen.
