THE LOCATION
The ancient, historic market town of Ashby (with its famous 15th century castle) almost certainly dates back to Roman times. Later, in the early 19th century, it became a spa town. Many of the Georgian-style buildings (including Rawdon Terrace) that you now see were built to accommodate visitors to the Baths. Today, Ashby de la Zouch is a thriving and bustling town within the National Forest and enjoys a wide range of good shops, schools, pubs, churches and local amenities. The nearby M42 motorway gives easy access to the M1, M5 and M6 and many other Midland towns and cities. The town is also convenient for the Nottingham East Midlands airport.

RAWDON TERRACE and LOCAL HISTORY
The Ivanhoe Baths were opened in 1822 within the formal landscape of the Bath Grounds. By 1827 the stone built Royal Hotel, Rawdon House and Terrace had been completed nearby to provide accommodation for the many visitors to the spa (which included the landed gentry and their servants.) The spa complex used mineral water transported from saline springs at Bath pit in Moira, which were brought by boat and horse drawn tramway to the larger settlement of Ashby (Hiller, 2009).
