She joins a bachelor (possibly at Bath?) (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sheba

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bath?' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'she joins a bachelor possibly' is the wordplay.
'joins' says to put letters next to each other.
'bachelor' becomes 'b' (abbreviation e.g. BA=Bachelor of Arts).
'possibly' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'b'='ab'
'ab' is an anagram of 'ba'.
'she'+'ba'='SHEBA'

'at' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sheba that I've seen before include "land of noted royal arrival" , "Biblical Queen of . . . . . visited King Solomon" , "Biblical queen's land" , "Old South Arabian kingdom" , "Ancient name of South Yemen" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
