Bath’s Civil Engineering Heritage Trail.
Bath is known for its Georgian architecture but this urban walk tours some of the sites of its fascinating civil engineering and industrial heritage that "underpins" its existence. Bring a drink/munchie; cafe lunch together afterwards if you wish.
Led by two Chartered Engineers, this walk circles the urban centre of Bath starting at the site of the previous Midland Railway terminus, then following roads, river, and canal paths to visit surprisingly important sites that have shaped society over millennia. Light walking shoes only needed.
