Bathwick Covered Way (MLN110624/10629)

The Bathwick Covered Way is a set of railway structures dating from the 19th century, constructed from Bath stone ashlar with some limited engineering brick patching.

The complex consists of three distinct parts. The northern tunnel, located under Raby Mews/Sydney Mews, features a north portal with a flattened horseshoe arch, a string course, and a parapet. This portal is adjacent to retaining walls that extend north to Sydney Wharf Bridge, which is separately listed at Grade II, as well as the rear of buildings on Sydney Wharf, also separately listed at Grade II. Above and behind the parapet, there is a single-storey 20th-century building that is separately listed as part of No.18 Raby Place. The south portal of the northern tunnel is similar in design but does not have adjacent buildings.

Between the northern tunnel and the southern tunnel, the retaining walls exhibit a battered curve. The east (Down) wall features a string course and a continuous parapet, while the west (Up) wall is lower and has a parapet composed of alternating balustraded and solid panelled sections.

The southern tunnel, located under Bathwick Hill, has a north portal that includes a flattened horseshoe arch and plain coping just above the voussoirs, but lacks a parapet. There is some brick patching on the left arch and the spandrel above. The south portal is more architecturally detailed, featuring a flattened horseshoe tunnel mouth with voussoirs rising from a plinth, flanked by piers designed as broad pilasters. Above this, there is a stepped cornice over a panelled parapet with moulded coping, and the wing walls are made of plain ashlar.
