Kensington Meadows, Local Nature Reserve, Bath

Kensington Meadows is a Local Nature Reserve within the floodplain of the River Avon. It is one of the few areas of the Avon within Bath that has natural banks. The area is characterised by a mosaic of habitats that support a diverse population of plants and animals. Old willow pollards are a feature of the site and kingfishers are regularly seem flying up and down the river.

The site is mostly flat with a surfaced path along the river. There are steps at the Ringswell Gardens (off London Road) entrance to the reserve.

The Friends of Kensington Meadows are the local community group and new members are always welcome.
