HISTORY

1

FOSSE WAY

The origins of the London Road or the Fosse Way are lost in the mists of
antiquity. Almost certainly there must have been a track along the north bank of
the adjacent River Avon, perhaps as far back as the Stone Age. What we do know
for certain is that the Romans created the 300-kilometre road from Lincoln to
Exeter between the years 43 and 51 AD. 


2

ROMANS

As Roman Bath, or Aquae Sulis (The Waters Of Sulis Minerva) developed as a spa
town with its famous baths, the Fosse Way became one of the principal roads of
the Roman Province of Britannia. The town of Aquae Sulis was at the centre of
the most settled part of the province, with wealth villas and productive
farmland all around it. The road must have been busy with both civilian and
military traffic, and it is probable that even the Emperors who visited
Britannia, including Hadrian, Septimus Severus and Constantine the Great would
have visited Bath, coming along the Fosse Way.

SAXONS

We know little of the events along the Fosse Way during those early Saxon years,
but almost certainly, at the end of May in 709 AD, the body of St Aldhelm,
England`s first native-born Saxon Saint was carried along the Fosse Way to his
final resting place at Malmsbury Abbey.

18TH CENTURY BATH

By the 1770s the farms and cottages of the old Fosse Way were giving way to the
grand terraces of the London Road. Walcot Parade and Walcot Terrace appear in
the 1770s. Royal patronage of a type notable in Bath, came with the building of
York Villa, where the Grand Old Duke of York kept a bevvy of mistresses.
Albemarle Buildings appears in 1789. It was renamed Walcot Buildings in 1803.
Kensington appears within the year as does Bath`s last grand development at
Grosvenor. Plans for a vast pleasure garden on what is now Kensington Meadow
were only thwarted by the sudden bankruptcy of the Bank of Bath in 1793: a
banking crash which took much of the city`s wealth with it.
