The younger John Wood's Assembly Rooms were, with the Pump Room, the centre of Bath's social scene. A fire virtually destroyed the building in 1942, but it has now been perfectly restored and houses a Fashion Museum, an entertaining collection of clothing from the Stuart era to modern Milanese designs.
