Queen Square, Bath, England
Record Id: 2741
Queen Square is now much-altered. The enclosed garden has the aspect of a 19th-century town garden rather than that of a Georgian square. It is now composed of grass, with various mature trees informally planted. The garden is enclosed by iron railings. An obelisk stands in the middle. Access is from the south side of the square. The dense traffic around the garden also alters its character quite dramatically, serving to isolate the garden from the surrounding buildings.
Queen Square is maintained by Bath City Council. The grass is cut regularly and the garden is kept clean and tidy.
