Bath 3

Our Crescent… e?

The city of Bath is famous for many things, including some rather splendid Georgian-period architecture. Pictured is The Royal Crescent, build between 1767 and 1775.

Slightly less well known (but equally splendid) is Crescente, Bath’s local specialist management and leadership training company and CMI centre.

By-the-way, we pronounce them the same.
