Great Chalfield is a beautiful medieval manor house surrounded by lush gardens and scenic countryside. Built around 1480 for Thomas Tropenell, a distinguished lawyer and landowner, the moated house is a Grade I listed property. Now owned by the National Trust, it has appeared in various films and TV shows, such as The Other Boleyn Girl, Tess of the d'Ubervilles, and Wolf Hall. Fans of Poldark will recognize it as Killewarran House.

Well worth a visit if you’re in Bath

Monkton Combe is a beautiful and charming village just south of Bath. It has a stunning Norman Church, St Michael’s Church, the obligatory public house, and an old-fashioned ‘village lockup,’ where they used to detain the less sober of the village inhabitants. What is most interesting is that the churchyard contains the grave of Harry Patch, the last surviving British soldier who fought in the First World War. It is well worth having a brief stop here.

A uniform, crescent-shaped front, many individual houses. Pure symmetry.

The tunnel lights were designed so you can see while not disturbing the bats. People using bright lights risk disturbing the bats and blinding other users. While you may feel using lights improves your ability to see and be seen they distract other users making it more difficult to see walkers, dogs etc.

The television series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" shows the culture-loving viewer world heritage sites on every continent in quarter-hour segments (in German). The following text is used as an introduction on the website of the film documentary about the world cultural heritage site 'BATH': "In the middle of a gently rolling park landscape in the south of England lies the spa town of Bath. Bath became fashionable after a visit by Queen Anne, who stayed here in 1702 and thereby triggered a renaissance of the rather run-down spa town. The Pump Room was built directly above the old Roman bath. The hot mineral water was drunk here in the early hours of the morning to the sound of classical music."

The tunnel lighting was upgraded in late 2023 and you can now easily see other riders, runners or pedestrians, so you do NOT need dazzling front lights any more. In the interests of safety and to avoid accidents PLEASE dim or dip your light when in the tunnel!
