A book has been launched by the Mayor of Bath's guides to encourage people to get out and about and explore the city.

Walk Back in Time has been put together by the honorary guides, and includes eight walks. It features maps and directions so walkers can discover the people, places and activities which made Bath famous.

All money raised from the books will go to the Mayor of Bath's Relief Fund, which helps residents facing hardship.

The Mayor of Bath, Councillor Bryan Chalker, said: "I am proud that the charter trustees agreed to sponsor this extremely impressive publication.

"It is a shining example of the excellent results that collaboration between the guides and the mayor's office can achieve.

"I know our clerk, Ann Tipper, has put a great deal of personal time and effort into this."

The eight walks are Two Waterways and Two Parks by Terry Mitchell, Mediaeval Life and Times of Bath by Audrey Woods, Lyncombe and Widcombe by Jean Amesbury and Myra Barnes, Victorian Bath by Kirsten Elliott, Quirky Bath by Jean Amesbury and Myra Barnes, Bath at War 1939-1945 by Alan Williams, Walcot, the Paragon and Broad Street by Margaret Burrows and The Navy in Bath by Donald Percy.

The book is available from the Guildhall, Good Buy Books, Oldfield Park Bookshop, Number One Royal Crescent and Toppings Book Company.
