This is an architectural monument that you cannot miss. Built around 250 years ago, Paltney Bridge is in the heart of Bath.

The Royal Crescent was built around 250-years ago and is considered one of the finest Georgian buildings to be seen in Britain.

The Circus, originally called King's Circus, was designed by the architect John Wood, the Elder.
Construction began in 1754, however Wood died less than three months after the first stone was laid and so his son, John Wood, the Younger, completed the design in 1768.
The Circus consists of three curved segments of Grade I listed townhouses, forming a circle with three entrances. When viewed from the air, the Circus, along with Queen Square and adjoining Gay Street, form a key shape, which is a masonic symbol similar to those that adorn many of Wood's buildings.
