We have chosen Bath for our next weekend conference for its many literary associations. Our South West members have helped with the planning. Our venue is Bath Spa University's Newton Park campus, centred on a 1760's grade 1 listed building set in parkland designed by Capability Brown with lakeside and woodland walks and walled gardens. The excellent Michael Tippett Centre on the campus will be our venue for all lectures and events.
Newton Park is four miles from the centre of Bath.
From Bath station there are taxis and some public buses. Car parking is available at the College We will be visiting Bath, Broadleas House, Avebury and Marshfield which was BBC's choice for Hollingford in their TV adaptation of Wives and Daughters.
