About

Walcot sits immediately north of Bath city centre, centred on Walcot Street. The main street is lined with independent shops, galleries, antique dealers, cafés, bakeries and small craft workshops. Georgian terraces and short side streets step up from the pavements, many built in Bath stone and retaining original sash windows and ironwork. The area functions as a local shopping and working quarter rather than a tourist precinct, with day-to-day services and small businesses that serve nearby residents and city centre workers.

The parish and community groups run events and pop-up sales in shopfronts and church halls, and several businesses operate from rear yards and cellar workshops that open on specific days. Small galleries show work by makers who also cut and repair frames or produce ceramics on site, so it is possible to see craft processes within a short walk of Walcot Street. Regular buses and links into the city keep the area connected while its streets remain compact and walkable.
