I would like to buy a bath which on one side has a built in tray or
ledge where items like soap, nailbrushes, sponges etc can be kept. So
far I have not found any during my internet searches. Maybe part of the
problem is that I don't know exactly what to search for.

Any suggestion as to where I might be able to buy such a bath I know of
two of them in different properties and probably 35+ years old. One is
green and the other is blue. Do the fashion gods say that I can no
longer have what I want?

white only

What I want really is another metal bath. Mine is losing its shine after
many years and hence is hard to keep clean or stick a mat to. It is white
and at the corners has space for what you are on about, but I bet all the
new baths are too low, too wide, or whatever, and would require a lot of
tile repairs, not to mention 5the antics to get the old one out and the new
one in!

Is this from years of micro scratches or just a thin layer of limescale?

Perhaps a quick squirt of toilet limescale remover gel may be a quick
solution to the lack of shine.

Micro scratches I should think but worth a try.

Pretty sure there are methods of re-enameling a steel/iron baths and
firms that specialise in doing it. Presumably an "enamel" paint or
perhaps polishing rather than reflowing the fused glass surface with
heat.
