Bath

Leaving Pant, we headed south through Wales, pausing in South Wales to see Caerphilly Castle.

From there, we moved on to Tintern Abbey on the banks of the River Wye right on the border between Wales and England.

This was our B&B in Bath: "Mrs Johnston's B&B". It looked a bit forbidding on the outside ...

... but the bedroom was very luxurious.

This was the vew over Bath from our bedroom window. Note the canal in the foreground and the railway further back. To get into central Bath, we walked across a bridge over the canal, and then under the railway ...

... and then past the cricket ground before arriving at central Bath.

We went to Bradford-on-Avon, where there is this Saxon church, rediscovered in Victorian times after being put to many purposes.

Inside the church is a very special place.

... and by night.
