Newbridge, Bath

Newbridge is a largely residential electoral ward on the western edge of Bath, Somerset, England.

The bridge was widened and improved in the 1830s to the version that now carries the A4 road from Bath to Bristol out of Newbridge.

It is a four-storey building in the arts and crafts style, designed by architect William Frederick Unsworth, and was Grade II listed in 2011.

From about 1902 to 1939, a tram service from central Bath to Newton St Loe operated down Newbridge Road and across the bridge.

[5][6] In 1915, Sidney Horstmann and his brothers built a large factory, Newbridge Works, in what was then the outskirts of Bath.
