I think it's just to add a bit of visual variety to a story that's not visual, rather than have just a whole item done from the studio. These days of course it cuts down the number of people in the studios
It could well be that the reporter and crew were filming in Bath or surroundings anyway. Could well be that they were sent out there and the plans for the item changed
I remember a few occasions in regional news when a sat truck and crew was sent out for a pointless live, or just to a nice location for the weather just because they had nothing else to go to. The sat truck was available and paid for as were the crew, they'd only be sitting around the office so they may as well send them out.
