The Sack of Julian Road - A Walking Tour with Dr Amy Frost

  • No1 Royal Crescent 1 Royal Crescent Bath, England, BA1 2LR United Kingdom (map)

Bath is celebrated for what survives, but how about what’s missing?

In this guided walk, Dr Amy Frost invites you to look again at a familiar part of the city and uncover the stories of streets that no longer exist. Building on the success of last year’s Widcombe walk, Amy explores the wartime bombing of Georgian Bath and the controversial post-war redevelopment known as the “Sack of Bath” (1965–75). Focusing on Julian Road and its neighbouring streets, the walk reveals how planning ideals and political decisions reshaped the city and asks what was lost along the way.

Start and End outside No 1 Royal Crescent, BA1 2LR
