This month we find out about Bath Stone - where it was mined and who was behind it.
Chief Executive Miranda Litchfield shows us around the Museum of Bath Stone which sits right on top of the now disused Combe Down Stone Mines.
It's Halloween so we asked our very own batman, Dan Merrett to show us behind the scenes of the batcave and tell us what happened to the bats that made the stone mines their home.
Finally we take a tour of Prior Park Landscape Gardens. Now owned by the National Trust, Prior Park Mansion was the country house belonging to Ralph Allen who funded the mining of the beautiful stone that built Georgian Bath.
Volunteer Robin Dixon takes us on an informative walk around the gardens on a beautiful sunny autumn morning.
