Ward in Bath and North East Somerset, England

Coordinates:51.379, -2.381
OS grid ref:ST 73 64
Dialling code: 01225 (Bath)

Westmoreland is an electoral ward in the unitary authority of Bath and North East Somerset, covering a compact, largely urban part of the city of Bath in England. Situated close to the River Avon, it combines pockets of Georgian and Victorian housing with more recent developments and sits within easy walking distance of the city centre, so residents benefit from both heritage surroundings and practical access to shops, services and transport links.

The ward has a mixed social and economic profile, with long-standing local communities alongside commuters and younger residents drawn by employment and education in the city. Local life reflects Bath’s broader heritage-led economy - tourism and heritage conservation are visible influences - while community groups and small businesses play a key role in everyday neighbourhood activity, and ongoing housing and regeneration pressures shape local conversations.
