The Royal Crescent
The grandest of Bath's many Georgian crescents, the Royal Crescent was built by John Wood the Younger between 1767 and 1774. It consists of thirty elegant mansions of freestone, uniformly built.

The Royal Crescent also has impressive views over the Royal Victoria Park. The Park includes many things of interest including Lawn Bowls and Tennis Courts, a children's adventure playground, and the Botanical Gardens.

My hometown Cheltenham also has a Royal Crescent designed by the same architect - Charles Harcourt Masters, although they were built during the regency period and are admitedly not quite as grand!

Strolling along this delightful canal provides some lovely views of the charming English countryside. Watch the canal boats go past, take in the scenery, and get some exercise, all at once.

This is one of the finest city parks in the West Country. One can stroll through over a mile of footpaths, lined on both sides with beautiful trees, flowers, and ponds.

The sound of horses hooves add to the atmosphere.

This horse and carriage seemed very popular. Unfortuneately I didn't have time to climb on board but thought it would be a great way to see the city.

Warwick Castle

This castle is well worth a look. It has lots of little shows and events going on during the day and is a fantastic place to spend some hours... I'm glad we went in...

Take a gander about the town. Admire the architecture. Shop for overpriced antiques. Try to convince your friend that you don't want his butt in all your pictures...
