There is one thing that I can't pass over, which is the handsome Manner of their Paving the Publick Walks. Joseph Draper clearly remembered the quality of paving when he described his visit to Bath in 1747. As a stimulant to memory, spaces may be more important than buildings. Every memory, 'unfolds in a spatial framework . The recall of memories of the visit is not only important to us as individuals but also provides an effective means of promotion of the City.
Visitors tell of, and enlarge on, their stay.
The process of remembrance of things in Bath will recall experiences of spaces first. It is in spaces that history creeps in, even into the very pores of the stone and through this a sense of place is perceived and lived again. Bath shares qualities with Zaira, Calvino's dream-like city that consists of relationships 'between the measurement of its space and the events of its past'. Consequently describing quality of space is difficult. Nevertheless by reflecting a memory or understanding the relationship between the present and its former use will assist in defining the character and the quality of spaces.
