A walking tour mod Bath today, 15 km overall. One of the pleasures of this trip has been the guides, volunteer docents who give informative and witty tours at historical sites. The tours of Bath, Bletchley & St. Paul's were all very enthusiastic on their subjects, and all 3 tours went long by a half hour because everyone was having so much fun.
One of the sites was a circular street of handsome town homes called the Circus, home to famous folks from Pitt to Cage. Lovely architecture. Just off the Circus is The Circus Restaurant where we returned for a second dinner. This place is worth a trip to Bath alone.
Bath Abbey is known as the Lantern. As the last Gothic church built in England, it took advantage of engineering advances to use very large windows. As a result, it is gloriously bright and a pleasure to see.
Location:Bath, Somerset
