About

Lansdown ward occupies the northern outskirts of Bath, characterised by elevated terrain that provides sweeping views across the city. The area is predominantly residential, with a mix of housing from various eras, and includes significant stretches of open countryside and farmland. Its landscape is defined by the prominent Lansdown Hill, a notable geographic feature that has historically shaped the ward's development and character.

The ward contains the site of the Battle of Lansdown, fought in 1643 during the English Civil War, with a monument commemorating the event standing on the hill. This rural edge of the city is also known for the Lansdown Racing Club and its golf course. The architecture includes the distinctive Lansdown Crescent, part of the wider Bath World Heritage Site, marking the northern limit of the Georgian city's expansion.
