Take Three Thursday: Views from the Park

I am joining Mary Lou with her weekly meme Take Three Thursday where we display 3 photos that have some connection.
When I was walking through Victoria Park in Bath I passed by some very different features. There are several formal flower beds and this one is a popular photo spot being close to The Royal Crescent.


The Royal Crescent itself was not easy to see. A marquee had been placed on the lawn in front of the Crescent which definitely spoils the iconic view from the park. I am not certain what it was for but suspect it maybe a wedding venue connected with the Royal Crescent Hotel which is a very smart hotel in the central part of the crescent.


I always think it is amusing to see the "backside " to these beautifully ornate and elegant Georgian houses. This view shows the back of Marlborough Buildings which is the road at one end of the Royal Crescent. It shows a much plainer side to the houses but also a hive of industry in gardens and allotments.

  1. I remember taking photos of the crescent of houses when we visited Bath years ago but we never ventured around the back of them, they certainly aren't as glamorous from the other side are they?
