Location
Kennet & Avon Canal, Bath to Westcliff starts in the west at the junction with the River Avon adjacent to the A36 Rossiter Road and the Bath Spa train station. The canal then runs north past Dolemeads and Bathwick in eastern Bath and then swings north east to Bathmead where it bends round to the south, running past Claverton and Limpley Stoke before turning east to the end of the section at Avoncliff Aqueduct (BA15 2HD).
Angling is from the north bank (towpath) only.
