Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and perhaps one night would have been enough here due to our early arrival yesterday, and the fact we’ve been before, but who’s to know months ago when you are planning for the future. Although it is still a beautiful city. It is decidedly colder today, especially if in the wind. Only 21.
Our 5.30am walk was interesting for two reasons. One being no crowds, naturally, and the other was seeing all the young people heading home after their night out, and even those still continuing. Are we getting old?!
The Bathampton Toll Bridge (historically Batheaston Bridge) is a historic Grade II listed privately owned arch bridge crossing the River Avon. Built in 1872 from local Bath stone, it remains operational today, offering a convenient route that connects Bathampton and Batheaston while allowing commuters to bypass congested Bath routes like the London Road. (Thanks google). Still owned by the same family, it was built to connect farmland. Roughly 5000 vehicles per day. Prices start at £1.20.
Lazy afternoon repacking and sorting for the start of our cycle trip around Cornwall. It’s been nice having a chill time.
