Local Area
In walking distance Widcombe Parade is a 10 minute walk from 11 Summerlays Place. This is a commercial street lined with a mix of Georgian and Victorian buildings located near the Halfpenny Bridge, with buildings dating back as far as 1750.
Here you can find a chemist, a doctors surgery, cafes which are open for breakfast and lunch, a public house and many other shops.
St. Matthew's Church, built 1846–1847, with one of the tallest spires in Bath, is positioned to be viewed at the east end of Widcombe Parade. Widcombe Manor House is a grade I listed manor house built in 1656. It is located on Church Street adjacent to St Thomas à Beckett Church. Crowe Hall is a Georgian house. It is a Grade II listed building, and the gardens are on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England. It was built around 1780 for Brigadier Crowe. It has had a succession of owners since who each adapted and renovated the building. A serious fire in 1926 destroyed a lot of the fabric of the building and further restoration was required.
The house is surrounded by several hectares of sloping gardens, below Prior Park, which are terraced and include a rock garden and grotto.
Widcombe is where the Kennet and Avon Canal meets the River Avon. Bath Locks are a series of locks, just south of Pulteney Bridge, which climb through Widcombe. Alongside the bottom lock is a side pond and pumping station which pumps water up the locks to replace that used each time the lock is opened.
Half Penny Bridge
Half Penny Bridge is a single-span, green wrought-iron lattice girder construction of 1877 by T.E.M Marsh. It replaced the original double bow-string wooden arch footbridge of 1863 by Hickes and Isaac, which collapsed with eight deaths in 1877. Originally a toll bridge, the toll of one half-penny per person gives rise to its common name of Ha'penny Bridge. It was most recently restored in 2013.
