From Bath to Salisbury

The railway trip from Bath to Salisbury is beautiful. This page lists some of the stuff you can see along the way.

The journey takes about an hour and twenty minutes.

From Bath Spa station you travel down through the Avon Valley to Bradford on Avon.

After Bradford on Avon you go on through Trowbridge, Westbury and Warminster, and then down the Wylye Valley to Salisbury.

I’ve added a small amount of detail here – there’s much more to come.
