The area is divided into two portions linked by Bathwick Hill. The lower section consists of the early 19th century developments adjoining the completed parts of the Bathwick Estate at the foot of Bathwick Hill, Sydney Buildings and Darlington Place and the wedge of land later developed stretching north to meet North Road. The upper section follows the early 19th century expansion up Bathwick Hill until it meets North Road, including the buildings of North Road itself. Consequently, the irregular boundaries of the Character Area are defined by the property boundaries of the houses forming the Character Area.

Edward Davis: Nineteenth-Century Batharchitect Andpupilofsirjohnsoane
EDWARD DAVIS: NINETEENTH-CENTURY BATHARCHITECT ANDPUPILOFSIRJOHNSOANE Michael Forsyth In Regency London surely the most exacting articled training an architect could receive was at the office of Sir John Soane (1753-1837), given his leading professional status, prolific output and personal style - most importantly at the Bank of England- and not least his interest in education. The Bath architect, Edward Davis (1802-52), who spent two years there, said it gave him a 'passport to life', going on as he did to enjoy a successful architectural practice of his own. Soane in 1806 had succeeded his own teacher, George Dance, as Professor of Architecture at the Royal Academy, and delivered his famous lectures there from 1809 until the year before his death.1 He also took considerable interest in his own pupils' progress, even after they had left his employment, as the correspondence between Soane and Edward Davis shows. Moreover, Soane' s office, where his pupils and assistants worked six days a week throughout the hours of daylight, was contained within his own home and museum at 13 Lincoln's Inn Fields. Soane left this fascinating treasure trove of instructive antiquities to the nation provided that nothing be changed, and so it survives today. Yet surprisingly little is known about Soane's pupils after they left his office, and of the many pupils who passed through his articled training during his long career relatively few went on to develop illustrious and productive practices of their own. Soane was a hard taskmaster and a man of difficult temperament, 'austere, exacting, touchy and neurotic'/ and more ambitious, less compliant architects may not have stayed the course- (Sir) Robert Smirke (1780-1867) left after a few months.

Walk to the View! Discover the Countryside in the City
Bath Skyline Walk to the view! Discover the countryside in the city Enjoy views that reveal the city’s unique setting Escape the city centre and enjoy the countryside air Experience Bath’s Georgian past on this 1½ hour walk Cover: Impression of Bath by Nick Hirst Nick by Bath of Impression Cover: Walk with the Georgians Attending balls, ‘taking the waters’, visiting neighbours – in the 18th century, Bath was at its most fashionable. The men and women of high society often felt the need to escape the hectic demands of the city to ‘take the air’ in the pleasure of its tranquil surroundings. When the Georgian story began, Bath consisted of a couple of hundred houses and was still largely confined within its medieval city walls (see illustration below) but over the next 100 years it was transformed. Today you can follow in the footsteps of the Georgians – through grand streets, public gardens, along the canal and on to the meadows of Bathwick Fields where you will be rewarded with a stunning view back to the city. Take in the vistas that revived the spirits of Jane Austen and her companions. This harmony of countryside and city has been recognised today by Bath’s designation as a World Heritage Site. The South East Prospect of the City of Bath, 1734 by Nathaniel Buck. © UK Government Art Collection Walk with the Georgians “ The pleasure of walking and breathing fresh air is enough for me, and in fine weather I am out more than half my time.” Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey Widcombe Hill Illustration: Nick Hirst Nick Illustration: Sham Castle l Smallcombe il H Wood k c i w h t Cleveland Walk a B Richens Orchard Smallcombe Cemetery Bathwick Fields Sydney Kennet and Avon Canal Buildings 3 2 Sydney Place Sydney Pulteney Road Gardens 1 T North Parade Holburne Museum Great Pulteney Street Parade Pierrepoint St Gardens To Bus/Train Stations 300m York Street i Grand Parade River Avon Bath Abbey Start/End of Walk KEY: REFRESHMENTS 3 miles/ 4.75 km (1½ hrs) 1 Garden Cafe at the Holburne Museum for dining and light snacks.

World Heritage Site Setting Study Information Paper October 2009 PART 3
Appendix 3 Historical Views and Places of Interest around Bath As with the section on Historical Routes into Bath, the following is mainly based around the period when the resort was at the height of its popularity, from the beginning of the 18th century until the mid-19th century. The aesthetic appeal of the city and its hinterland was already well established by this time, and an important part of the social ritual for visitors to Bath were excursions on horseback, in carriages, or on foot, into the surrounding countryside - considered not only beneficial to physical health but also to cultural and spiritual well-being. The experience of William Jones, mentioned in his letter to Viscount Althorp in 1777, would have been familiar to many: ‘During a month’s residence at Bath I pursued my own inclination so entirely and joined so little in the follies of the place (well knowing that one ball or assembly is as like another, as a fig is like a fig) that I was unable to answer fifty questions which were put to me to-day about Mr.Wade and his ball, and the concerts, and the breakfasts, and the Duke of Cumberland, and the gambling, and the dresses... but I could pass a strict examination about the walks and rides, the hills and valleys, and Landsdown, and Granville’s Monument, and the Rocks, and a number of pleasant scenes unknown to those who amuse themselves with walking backwards and forwards on the parades.’ For this reason, descriptions and illustrations of historical views around the city occur most frequently during this period, not only to publicise the attractions of Bath, but to provide a guide to the stranger.

By Janine Barchas
MAPPING NORTHANGER ABBEY: OR,WHYAUSTEN’S BATH OF 1803 RESEMBLES JOYCE’S DUBLIN OF 19041 by janine barchas Twin cases of mistaken identity activate the plot of Northanger Abbey. Escorted to Bath by a kindly Mr and Mrs Allen, the heroine promptly gets mistaken for the Allen heir. In turn, the Allens, a modestly-well-to-do country couple, are thought vastly rich. These catalysts for Austen’s plot have never been investigated with an Downloaded from eye to an historical explanation, because being mistaken for an heiress neatly ¢ts the Gothic model that Northanger Abbey decidedly spoofs. But Austen’s ¢ction has an unacknowledged basis in historical fact, characteristically o¡ering her peculiar brand of hyperrealism as a retort to the Gothic novel. In reality, Bath’s largest private fortune, belonging to a genuine Mr and Mrs Allen, was in transition during precisely the years that Austen drafted her novel (Cassandra dated it to 1798 and 1799). The wealth amassed by Bath entrepreneur Ralph Allen http://res.oxfordjournals.org (1693^1764), and held by a niece for over three decades, was just then reverting to obscure Allens living in the country.These historical circumstances warrant a fresh look at Northanger Abbey, where the many encoded references to Ralph Allen’s architectural legacy reveal a historical speci¢city to Austen’s method that rivals the cartographic exactitude of James Joyce. James Joyce famously boasted that turn-of-the century Dublin might forever be reconstructed from the details in his Ulysses (1922). As a result, scholars take Joyce’s spatial descriptions seriouslyçmore so than anyone has hitherto taken by on May 4, 2010 Jane Austen’s descriptions of Bath in Northanger Abbey (1818).
