Good to see some fresh tree planting on the new Riverside park. Let’s hope these are disease-free and able to grow and flourish.


Such a shame reversing vehicles can’t watch what they are doing though. An extra bollard here wouldn’t go amiss.

Still waiting on a comment from B&NES on the state of the fountain in Laura Place. It’s been many months since it lost some of its coping stones after being accidentally hit by a vehicle.

Beginning to think it would be better to scrap the old girl and install a contemporary fountain requiring less maintenance and one which is less easy to damage.

While we are talking about repairs to damaged Bath heritage sites – there doesn’t seem to be much action down by Pulteney Bridge where another accidental vehicle collision sent some of the stone balustrade down onto the weir below. Again l have asked for a comment from B&NES.
Mike from the Covered Market pointed out something to me which may be potentially dangerous. Is this a live wire poking out of the edging surrounding the temporary parking bay in front of the Guildhall?


Finally – for today – who is dumping the rubbish bags at this litter bin near the rear of the Holburne Museum? Shame they don’t come back and look at the consequences of their actions.
