Some pictures taken during a brief two hour walking tour of Bath. Fred Mawer is an exceptional tour guide even by blue badge tour standards. Highly recommended.
Romey and I felt a little like this seagull who scored a huge piece of bread.
We started at the Royal Crescent hotel, about which more here.
Somehow it seems to me that these trees should be oaks instead of sycamores. But they are properly regal and huge, centering the Bath Circus.
Architectural details make all the difference. Speculative real estate development for the win.
All of the stone for these buildings is local, giving the town a unifying, opulent feeling. The tea house.
We walked on the day that the Christmas market started. Fred points out an old sign.
Apparently there is a cocktail scene. We will have to come back and try it out.
Romey and Jane Austin.
Religion? Justice? Do not enter. A conceptual collage.
The river Avon with some voiceover typical of our tour.
The cinema from Fantastic Mr Fox
All in all Bath is a beautiful place well worth a visit. We can’t wait to return.
