Bath Postal Museum once explained Britain's postal development through letters, stamps and mail equipment, including the work of Ralph Allen and John Palmer. Its collection is no longer open to visitors, so treat the museum as historical context rather than a stop. Bath’s former main post office at Northgate Street and Green Street is linked to the first recorded posting of a Penny Black.
