Bath Blitz

I was looking at an old Batsford book about Bath and found this photo of Lansdown Place East after a bombing raid during the Blitz. There are still visible craters in the grass in front of Lansdown Crescent, now grazed peacefully by sheep.

Below this pic is a photo I took earlier today of the same road – all looking much healthier now!
