Medieval Wall The last part of the wall that surrounded Bath. Located in
Upper Borough Walls opposite The Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic
Diseases BA1 1RL. The picture shows the outside of the wall, so outside
of the city limits. |
Bath was summoned - in bravado but the herald was shot dead by one of the Somerset Militia manning the walls

The Eastgate is the last survivor of the gates to the medieval city of
Bath (the north, west and south gates were demolished 1754-76). It
originally led to the city mill and the ferry to Bathwick. |
