Ramble through city and focus on airport
Rodney Stoke and Draycott WI
At our September meeting we had a talk called Bath My Way, from Robert Tinckner.
This was not so much history of Bath, more a ramble through Bath. The talk was illustrated with some lovely slides of Bath and its surroundings. He started at Corsham Church and then went via the Victoria suspension bridge, Victoria Park, the Botanical Gardens and the Royal Crescent. He mentioned the Hansel and Gretel shop, full of cuckoo clocks, told us that the Museum of Bath at Work was well worth a visit and went on to mention the Jane Austen Centre, Poultney Bridge and the Holburne Museum. This was interspersed with funny tales of his adventures, such as being on a pleasure boat when it broke down in the weir.
We also had an interesting talk from our new village agent, who came and told us about her role.
