Most of us know Bradford on Avon as a delightful town, a great place to live & a very popular destination for tourists. However, it hasn’t always been like that as it has a long and varied industrial history. This includes agriculture, weaving, stone mining, rubber, bicycles & a now vibrant hi-tech sector.

This guided walk will highlight how the town has been shaped and preserved by these industries over the centuries and will visit many of the historical buildings and sites associated with them. It will be mainly pavement walking and there will be some steps to climb.
