Newington Bagpath clings to the side of the valley above the Little Avon River, facing across to its long redundant church and nearby castle mound. The hamlet once supported a colony of weavers and at one time there were cloth mills along the river dating originally from the time of the monks of Kingswood Abbey. Time photo taken not available.
