Beazer Garden Maze Mosaic


 
Having lived in Bath for a year now, I thought it was about time I took a walk along the Avon Canal. I discovered Beazer Garden Maze hidden beneath Pulteney Bridge on my travels...
Designed by Rondoll Coate in 1984, the centre of the weaving stone path maze is a mosaic of the Sulis head. I thought the intricate design was pretty impressive. The petite unicursal maze is inspired by the city's Georgian architecture, Brunel's railway designs and is centered around a large Roman-inspired mosaic. It didn't take very long to complete but luckily I won (was wondering along the paths with my boyfriend.) A few odd glances were thrown our way whilst trying to get to the centre but hey, why not walk a stone maze when you're 20?
