Water is Best according to a sweet little marble statue erected near the Abbey by the Bath Temperance Association. The Association was founded in 1836 and preached the evils of drink to the townspeople. The cute girl and her jug were put in place in 1861.
It is a sweet statue, but I was thinking of the epidemics caused by untreated water in the cities around the same time:)
ReplyDeleteI'm with Rosie - we should drink more beer to prevent disease. Lovely statue, though.
