Description: This photograph was meant to show the former King's Arms pub at 5, Walcot Street (2, Walcot Street until 1904) on the other side of the road, but unfortunately the photographer chose the wrong building and instead took a photograph of Rich & Cooling's garden supplies store. This was 52, Walcot Street until it was renumbered in about 1905. It was demolished in 1970 to make way for the Podium.
From a photographic survey from 1965-1966 of over 300 existing or lost pubs and breweries in Bath and the surrounding area. The correct building can be seen in Image Refs. 15489 and 38978.
