Abstract

The bath may also comprise a removable cover having one part which when the cover is in place in the bath fits over the drain outlet and is substantially flush with the floor of the bath and another part which extends up an adjacent wall section of the bath substantially to a rim of the bath, for assisting in supporting a person sitting in the bath over or adjacent the drain outlet and reclining against the wall of the bath.
