About

Twerton is a residential suburb situated in the northwest of Bath. The area is largely made up of housing estates built in the mid-20th century, alongside older terraced homes.

The local high street provides essential shops and services for the community. A notable local landmark is the former Twerton Ironworks site, a reminder of the area's industrial past before its expansion as housing for Bath.
