This crescent - sometimes used as a backdrop in adverts - is much less visited than the Royal Crescent. There are often sheep grazing on the lawn in front of it. 'The architectural treatment of Lansdown Crescent is less superb than the earlier, more formal, spaces in Bath... With its elevated position, its superb views over Bath, its fine overthrows and lamps and its patinated stonework, magical at dusk, the crescent has unrivalled presence.' (Michael Forsyth, Bath Pevsner Architectural Guide)
