Partis College
Partis College is one of Bath's hidden gems. It is a charity which houses thirty women aged over 50, of professional status but in reduced circumstances (for example Services widows). It is an Anglican foundation; the chapel is behind the pediment. As it is a private organisation and on the fringes of Bath, hidden behind trees and hedges, most Bathonians are probably unaware of it.

Cancelled cut benchmark on Kelston Road
This mark appears to have some downward arrows along with the conventional upward pointing ones. This indicates the mark has subsequently been cancelled - thanks to Roger Templeman for the information. Interestingly it is barely a few metres from a Flush Bracket. See
Image] for a location shot and see http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm40822 for the Benchmark Database, which gives some more details.

River Avon on the Western fringes of Bath
This section of the river is just to the west of Bath, and flows down to Bristol. Once it would have carried heavy industrial traffic to Bristol, now it really only carries leisure craft.
