We stumbled upon this Obelisk in Orange grove, purely by chance when we visited The Bath Abbey, as it is just across the road from The Abbey, placed in the centre of a roundabout which has been made into a pretty garden. Well worth a quick stroll and offers a good view and photographic opportunity of The Abbey. Commemorated to the Prince of Orange, who visited & took the medicinal waters of Bath in 1734. The garden is dedicated to the link between the cities of Bath and Alkmaar in the Netherlands, one on Bath's twin cities.

This is a plain stone structure. It was gifted to the city of Bath by Beau Nash in 1734. It stands proudly amidst the orange grove in front of the Bath Abby. It is dedicated to the Prince of Orange who was healed by the medicinal waters of the city. I feel that an obelisk was chosen because these tall tapering structures represent rebirth. You can see it in the garden of Alkmaar.
