This section of the path crosses Trafalgar Park’s vista of the River Avon and beyond it Charlton All Saints.

As you might imagine with a name like Trafalgar the estate has connections with Admiral Horatio Nelson.

Following Horatio’s death at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805 his brother Rev William Nelson was created 1st Earl Nelson and apparently lobbied Parliament for an estate in recognition of his brother’s service to the nation.

Standlynch Park was the location chosen by the Treasury and it was renamed Trafalger Park. Descendants of Horatio Nelson lived here until 1948 when it was sold by the 5th Earl Nelson.
