Bath from Beechen Cliff, c. 1900 (reduced in size)
These 63 Victorian and Edwardian views of Bath are taken from two separate photographic albums published in about 1900 and 1910 respectively. Although originals of these photographs would be difficult to find, you can now get them on a cd-rom prepared from the original published photographs held in a private collection.
This cd-rom isn't mass produced but is compiled individually and personally for each purchaser so few copies exist. You can get one of them by bidding here.
Greatly reduced sample images are set out below, followed by a list of all the views.
