Hello and thank you for joining our festive evening walk. Today we are back in Bath. I thought it would be nice to have a look at the Christmas lights. It is 7pm and there is a cold chill in the air… I need thicker gloves! We start our walk at north end of the popular Milsom Street. We then take a left on to Green Street and make our way towards Bath Abbey. Though I do get distracted and walk done The Corridor, a little indoor shopping arcade. Most of the shops in Bath tonight are closed, as we move closer to Christmas some will stay open later for shopping. When we approach Bath Abbey it is lit a striking red, beautifully accentuating its gothic architecture. Bath Abbey from the air, or in plan view, is cruciform in shape resembling the cross of Christ. The Abbey is classed as Perpendicular Gothic architecture, popular from the late 14th to mid 16th century known for its broad arches, elaborate fan vaulting and large windows with vertical ornamental stonework. As we carry on our walk there is a twinkling Christmas tree in the Abbey Churchyard and you will notice that the lights on the Abbey subtly change colour over time. We then walk past the classic Pump Room restaurant and wander around the Abbey Garden square, after which we fade to black… When quickly return outside The Theatre Royal where people are cuing for: A Christmas Getaway - a Frantic festive farce inspired by P.G. Wodehouse, Noel Coward and classic British comedy! We then get a little distracted walking around the glowing lights of the maple tree and walk past The Little Theatre, a lovely little cinema that shows independent films. We finish our walk outside the Thermae Bath Spa, a combination of contemporary and classic historic stone spa fed by thermal waters. It also has an open air rooftop swimming pool. The Bath mineral water springs are the warmest geothermal springs in Britain. The springs were utilised greatly by the Romans and were responsible for the popularity of Bath as health resort in the 18th and 19th century.

I’ll stop talking now and let you enjoy the rest of this walk. Thank you walking along today. Christmas is a popular event and acknowledged by many across the world. As I get older I see it as a time to be still and take stock of the year that has gone, appreciating quieter moments and thinking of others, acknowledging kindness and being grateful, especially during these potentially hard and sometimes lonely times. Enjoy the rest of the walk, I appreciate you for joining in today. We are never alone, together we are strong, Adam x
