Bath and Prior Park College |
|
The city of Bath, a World Heritage Site, is one of the jewels of
England. The compact city centre which is surrounded by seven
hills like Rome, developed around its hot spring water. It is a
fascinating blend of Roman, medieval and Georgian architecture,
combined with a thriving shopping centre and excellent leisure
facilities.
Our course takes place at Prior Park College, an impressive
independent school with amazing views overlooking Bath. The
college was originally built in the Palladian style for Ralph
Allen, a wealthy businessman who wanted to demonstrate the
beauty of Bath stone. Set in 57 acres (23 hectares) of parkland,
the grounds provide a wealth of sports facilities including
tennis courts, Astroturf pitches and football pitches. |
