In Bath, a bridge doesn’t just cross the river—it becomes a theater for ambition, rebellion, and roaring water. Explore a self-guided audio tour through Kingsmead’s elegant streets and storied green fields, unearthing secrets most wanderers pass by unnoticed.

Why did a simple family rivalry nearly turn Pulteney Bridge into Bath’s ultimate scandal? Which sports ground doubled as a battleground for rock legends and politicians alike? And who keeps watch from the spire of St John’s Church—pilgrims or predators?

Stroll where triumph rose from muddy pitch, where scandal erupted over stonework, and where victory echoes beneath gothic arches. Every step sweeps you deeper into history’s mysteries and Bath’s boldest moments—sights and stories woven into every street.

Your journey between these hidden dramas awaits. Discover the Bath that lives between the lines—just beyond the familiar postcard view.
