Bath has attracted fashionable society for more than two hundred years. The High Street or Main Street is Milsom Street. Jolly's was established here in the 1820's and was among the first department stores in the country. Today, it houses the leading retailer House of Fraser, but still retains much of the original character.
Milsom Street has most of the main multiple stores and extends down into a pedestrian area past the famous Roman Baths. It is normal to find a lot of street entertainers here.

You will want to explore down alleyways that lead off Milsom Street where many of the best places are.
Stroll around the Upper Town to discover a selection of antique shops in Bath which display a wide range of antiques including furniture, ceramics, glass, textiles, architectural antiques as well as books and maps.
Many commercial galleries can also be found in the Upper Town which offer contemporary visual arts for sale, changing exhibitions as well as talks and readings.
The Guildhall Market next to Bath Abbey is a normal market with all kinds of things at reasonable prices. Probably best of all is the building itself, a Grade II listed building, constructed in 1891.
Walcot Street, a few hundred yards north of the shopping centre area past the Hilton Hotel is filled with a vibrant selection of independent craft and curio shops. From reclaimed antiques and furniture to clothes, pottery and bicycles.
