Walking Tour with Akeman Press of the Ghost Signs of Bath

We are delighted to be in partnership once again with the folks over at Akeman Press for another walking tour of Bath, this time exploring the mysterious ghost signs...

Ghost signs – those faded advertisements for long defunct businesses on the walls of old buildings – are among the most potent reminders of a bygone age – and nowhere are they found in greater abundance or variety than on the streets of Bath.

Andrew Swift and Kirsten Elliott trace the history of over 130 of Bath’s ghost signs. On this walk they go in search of the some of the most intriguing and reveal the stories behind them.

Don’t miss this chance to explore Bath with a true pair of experts. Places are very limited for our walking tours so make sure to secure your place!

Meet at the at the bookshop at 10:30 am for 11 am walk.
