A historic monument located on a busy canal. It's history is explained. It is a chimney of origin 1800s. Once stood here, a pump house for pumping water up from the river to the canal. It now has benches around it area and a tuck shop/ cafe open in the summer. A good place to take a rest.

Even though we are locals, didn't know about this but stopped for coffee and it was right beside us. Another bit of Bath history.
