Background
History
The church stands between Broad and Walcot Streets, where they merge onto Northgate Street, next to the Post Office building. The south tower (referred to as the W tower) fronts Northgate street and is prominent on Bath's skyline. The church is known as St Michael's Without, it being the first church to be found outside Bath's city walls when exiting from the North Gate. The parish was in the past known as St Michael's with St Paul's. In 2013, with the closure of Holy Trinity Church on Queen's Square, the two parishes were merged and the parish reverted to its original name of St Michael Without.
