I made a quick visit into Bath today, parking at the Cricket Club - so my first photo was taken of the pitch - now that the season has finished, it looks as if work has begun to restore the grass ready for next year!
A little further along the road and a view from the bridge towards Bath Spa station.
Across North Parade to the other side of the bridge for the classic view of Pulteney Bridge and the weir. The old Empire Hotel is shrouded in scaffolding and plastic sheeting so I chopped it out of the photo but there is more of the same on the old Duck, Son & Pinker corner. Bath is looking like a city under wraps today.
Here is the wide view..see what I mean? Not sure why there are no narrowboats along the towpath and floats instead.
Sally Lynn's cafe - the oldest house in Bath - Jane Austen herself could have visited. Next door is shrouded in scaffolding...
In Abbey Green the tree seems to have grown even larger but the 'green', formerly grass, is now gravel..
A quick snap of the Abbey whilst crossing the churchyard..
A blustery day and in the High Street the clouds are beginning to gather..
Errands completed, heading back to the car along the towpath so a few views of the river..
It's going to rain.. getting very grey..
The Empire Hotel doesn't look much better from this side but it is still a classic view.. even as it starts to rain..
