'A magical way of story-telling!

Audience response to Clifton Story-Walk​

​

Walk, listen, discover, enjoy!

 

Join story walker Clare Reddaway to explore a selection of Bath’s green spaces. Clare will share hidden facts and freshly written stories inspired by the paths and pavements we walk on every day. We’ll encounter labyrinths and musicians, steam trains and brass bands, and maybe a grumpy old lady leaning on a stick. Experience the colourful history and contemporary life of Bath with fresh new eyes.

​

Clare regularly leads popular story-walks in Bristol for the Clifton LitFest, the West of England Irish Culture Festival and the Avon Gorge and Downs Wildlife Project. Her entertaining mixture of history and stories captures walkers’ imaginations: ‘Innovative’ and ‘An absolute joy!' said participants. ‘We were entranced’.

 

The walk will take approx 1¾ hours. Unusually for Bath, it is mainly on level ground, with two gentle slopes. The paths are occasionally uneven and could be wet, so please wear sensible footwear. Suitable for 12 plus.

 

This is Bath, it might rain. If the event has to be cancelled due to bad weather, tickets will be refunded or can be transferred to another walk day. 

 

Ticket price of £12 includes the entrance fee to Parade Gardens.

​

This event has been created for the Bath Fringe Festival.

​

If you like the look of this event, you might be interested in a site specific writing workshop A Green Thought In A Green Shade, another event Clare Reddaway is running as part of the Bath Fringe Festival.
