Camden Place is on the northern slopes of the city of Bath and is raised above the level of the road on a steep terrace walk outside of the city center.

Lyme is a historic seaside resort  that is at the mouth of the river Lym in the county of Dorset. It's existence depends on the Cobb, which is a small artifical harbor that allowed Lyme to become a shipbuilding center and port. Lyme is the town that the Harville's live in, and is where Charles, Mary, Anne, Henrietta, Louisa, and Captain Wentworth visit after Wentworth receives an invitation from Captain Harville.

The Sound is described within the footnote on page 99 of Persuasion as "the sheltered inlet leading from the English Channel into Plymouth Harbour" (Austen).

Queen Square was, at one point in time, considered one of the more prestigious, socially high-end areas of the already high-end city of Bath.

Today, this county is still relatively small in comparison to other, more bustling English counties.
