The Circus, Bath and North East Somerset added to Historic Buildings in South West by gasbag43 on 20/04/2025

The Circus, originally called King's Circus, was designed by the architect John Wood and begun in 1754 and completed in 1768.

The Circus consists of three curved segments of Grade I listed townhouses, forming a circle with three entrances. When viewed from the air, the Circus, along with Queen Square and adjoining Gay Street, form a key shape, which is a masonic symbol similar to those that adorn many of the architect’s other buildings.

Engraved into the stonework you’ll see many emblems, such as serpents, acorns, and nautical symbols. Convinced that Bath had been the principal centre of Druid activity in Britain, Wood studied Stonehenge, and designed the Circus with the same diameter.

It is said that the Circus is joined to the Royal Crescent by a ley-line, and that their design represents the sun and the moon.

The Circus has been home to many famous people over the years. The artist Thomas Gainsborough between 1759 and 1774, and more recently, Hollywood actor Nicholas Cage also lived at The Circus.

Crail harbour, Crail and Boarhills (By outRAGEis)

A great wee place to film, not very busy and the harbour is actually quite small given how popular this area is with fishermen and other boating related activities. There's not too many people, but there are a few birds that'll come to investigate so keep your guard up especially if you need to get that footage from a high vantage point.

parking is easy, up on the road and it's free too. Just be mindful of other road users and locals alike.

Red Castle (By outRAGEis)

A great place to get out and boost your Vitamin D supply in the sun and get some great flying time too. The Red Castle is easy to get to, there;'s access from the road which is big enough for only one car. I never realised this until I got home and viewed the footage back as I parked at nearby Lunan Bay. A few birds are nesting, pigeons, seagulls and Kites which can be a bit tricky depending on the time of day that you arrive.

All in all a really great place just be mindful of the the sun's rays on the water and surrounding beach so I needed a ND64 filter even at 12pm. Access is simple as I've mentioned above, Lunan Bay car park is free, just make sure that you're away by 9m or you get locked in. The Flight Restricted Zone nearby notification is for the railway line. Just don't do anything stupid such as low flying over the tracks when a train passes by, or even try to follow the train for a more "cinematic" feel.

Wharton Hall, Eden (By markas)

Wharton Hall is a fortified manor house, situated two miles south of Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria, England. The hall was founded around 1415 by the Wharton family, who further extended the property in the middle of the 16th century. A deer park was established around the enlarged manor house, requiring the relocation of the local village community.

Wharton Hall fell into disuse and was sold off in 1728 after the attainder of Philip, the Duke of Wharton. James, the Earl of Lonsdale, restored much of the hall in 1785, letting it out for use as a farmhouse. It continues to form part of a farm in the 21st century.

Lammerside Castle Cumbria, Eden (By markas)

Lammerside Castle is a 12th century building which was rebuilt and strengthened in the 14th century as a Pele tower, to provide protection against scots raiders. It is situated on the bridle path between Pendragon Castle and Wharton Hall.

The ruins include the upstanding remains of a C14 tower or wing which originally formed part of the building’s central core, together with the earthwork remains of buildings to the north and south of the tower and a barmkin wall which enclosed a yard to the west of the tower.

The castle was occupied by a branch of the Wharton family, but is thought to have been abandoned in C17, when the family moved to the fortified manor house, Wharton Hall, near Kirkby Stephen.

The tower is constructed of coursed, squared rubble, measures 14m by 11m, with a barrel-vaulted ground floor, and survives to two storeys high.

St John the Evangelist RC church, Bath and North East Somerset (By gasbag43)

St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church is located on the South Parade in the south-east section of Bath City Centre

The structure was designed and built between 1861-3 by Charles Francis Hansom, who was the brother of J. A. Hansom, the creator of the Hansom cab.

While Bath is perhaps better known for the Anglican Abbey just up the road, it is the spire of St John’s that dominates the city’s skyline as it is the tallest building in the area – its 222-foot (68 m) spire was added by Hansom in 1867.

TOAL was from the public footpath directly opposite on the other bank of the river
