Great Pulteney Street
Commissioned by Sir William Pulteney, it was designed by the architect Thomas Baldwin and completed in 1789. The Corporation of Bath wanted to expand the boundaries of the City, and Sir William's estate was conveniently situated just over the other side of the River Avon.
At over 1,000 feet (300 m) long and 100 feet (30 m) wide, the road itself is the widest and the grandest in Bath. However, the architect, Baldwin, designed only the façades of buildings. A variety of owners acquired plots of land along the new street and built the actual structures behind the façades, so that while the street has a visual unity, the buildings have different internal features, some having been designed as private houses and others as hotels.
It was foreseen that, along with the access provided by Pulteney Bridge, the eastern side of the Avon would become popular with speculators and developers. This appears not to have been the case, and in the event no further developments were made on this scale. Indeed, one of the side streets off Great Pulteney Street, called Sunderland Street, is the shortest street in the city, with only one address. After 1789, the financial climate did not encourage further building, as the Panic of 1797, related to a period of deflation between 1793 and 1800, was followed by the Napoleonic Wars, which saw the Depression of 1807. Bath was also affected by a serious flood in 1809, hich would have inundated the basements in Great Pulteney Street as well as the surrounding fields.
Famous former residents of the street have included the novelist Jane Austen and the anti-slavery campaigner William Wilberforce. Numbers 1 to 7 were a single government office, now designated as a Grade I listed building. Numbers 41A and 42 to 77 have also been Grade I listed.
Drawings of all the building plans (including many proposals that were never built) can be viewed in the Victoria Art Gallery situated on the corner of Pulteney Bridge and Grand Parade.

WALES, BATH- Wikepedia: A fingerpost (sometimes referred to as a guide post) is a traditional type of sign post in the United Kingdom consisting of a post with one or more arms – known as fingers – pointing in the direction of travel to places named on the fingers. The posts have traditionally been made from cast iron or wood, with poles painted in black, white or grey and fingers with black letters on a white background, often including distance information in miles. In most cases, they are used to give guidance for road users, but examples also exist on the canal network, for instance.
Location: Bath, England in a circular park that slopes up to the right of this picture. Up at the top are the most recognizable homes in Bath. They are built together and make a grand C-shape and overlook the city. I don't have a picture of that here though. Sorry, Charlie.
Time: Anne Marie and I watched the sunset here and ate chocolate digestives. I'm surprised this picture came out at all with the sun setting right behind those houses.
Temperature: Pleasant. I was able to sit on my jacket without feeling chilled.
Temperament: I'm very content with a happy combination of park grass, children playing, digestives, sunset, hot air balloon, good weather, and lovely surroundings.
Bath Abbey is a magnificent building both inside and out. Only problem shooting in here is there are so many people milling around it's hard to get a shot with nobody walking through.
Into photoshop and a few clicks of the healing brush sorted that out!
Oh and this is also my first shot in portrait mode I have ever posted on Flickr...
