Bradford on Avon at Midwinter

Jusr a few views from the pretty ex-market town of Bradford on Avon some eight miles south of Bath and another ancient settlment like Bath with its roots in being a Roman settlement and more recently a prosperus centre for trades based on transport via the river, then the canal and finally the railway. 

Nightfall on the main crossing - Town Bridge - over the Rivwe Avon.


View from Westbury Gardens looking north



River Avon at the old mill building

Church of the Holy Triniy


The ancient Saxon church of St Lawrence - dating back to at least the 11th century and probably further..


Inside the Saxon church

The beautiful Georgian Church House

The Masonic Hall built in the 1500s. 


And some other street views as the light fades -





The 'Gudgeon' the distinctive weather vane on the town lock-up.


The Bridge Tea Rooms formally a Blacksmiths dating from 1502.
