RADSTOCK HAS MUCH TO OFFER

The Iron age settlement of Radstock sits on the Roman built Fosse Way, south west of Bath.

The discovery of coal in 1763, led to the rapid growth in the area with former mines now making up a number of the Radstock wards within the town, all of which can explored in the Radstock Museum.

The area has evolved into a network of greenspaces and active ways providing lovely walks and cycleways in beautiful countryside and the town itself is situated within a conservation area recognised by white lias and historic terraces and buildings.

It is well worth a visit.

A range of parking charge proposals, including the introduction of emission-based parking charges to all council-owned car parks where the scheme currently doesn’t operate and on-street pay and display locations in Bath, are being consulted on.   

A review of parking charges across Bath & North East Somerset was agreed earlier this year as part of the council’s budget.

Now people are being asked to comment on the wider roll-out of the proposals which aim to improve air quality through a major shift to sustainable transport, walking and cycling and incentives to reduce the use of more polluting vehicles. 

The theme for this year's challenge is "Marvellous Makers" look out for activities taking place in the library through the summer.

Community Hub and Library

Radstock Town Council currently reside in the former Bath & North East Somerset Council Library building. In May 2019, the town council agreed to support the formation and continuation of a community library to support our residents. The facilities have allowed the town council to offer a space for a number of services to use. It was quickly apparent in the last few years that the space within this building was not large enough for all the activities that were needed. An opportunity to acquire for a new community space has been made possible through the acquisition of Trinity Methodist Church that will be known in the future as Trinity Hub. This has been supported by Bath & North East Somerset Council with funding made available thorough community infrastructure levy and UK shared prosperity funding.

Trinity Hub

Trinity Hub was purchased in the summer of 2024 by Radstock Town Council with the aim to create a community space for local groups and residents. Situated in the heart of Radstock, it is available to hire providing a range of rooms suitable for a variety of events including meetings, talks, performances, conferences, exhibitions and social gatherings.
