‘Following the success of this event in April, Bath Stone Museum and the historic Jewish Burial Ground in Combe Down will again hold a FREE-TO-ENTER joint opening on Sunday, June 28th.
This creates a rare chance to explore two remarkable heritage sites on the same day. A short walk apart, each tells a different but connected story about the historic Combe Down quarry landscape.
The museum reveals the industrial story behind the famous Bath stone – the material that built the city and transformed Combe Down into one of the most important quarrying areas in the region.
You’ll find it at 54a Combe Rd, BA2 5HZ
The Burial Ground tells the story of Bath’s small Jewish community in the 18th-20th centuries.
You’ll find it at 1 Greendown Place, BA2 5DD
En route between the two, you could take the opportunity to drop in to the newly reopened King William pub, which will be open for drinks and restaurant service.’
