One of only four Palladian bridges of its kind in the world spans the lake here, built in 1755. The valley garden above Bath was laid out by the quarry owner Ralph Allen, with advice from Alexander Pope and Capability Brown, framing a long view back over the city. The National Trust runs it with no car park, so walk up from Bath Spa station, about a mile and a half below.
