Camden Crescent in Bath, Somerset, England was built by John Eveleigh in 1788. Numbers 6 to 21 have been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]
In 1889 a landslide demolished 9 houses at the east end of the crescent. The remains of the houses were demolished and removed to allow Hedgemead Park to be built.[2] This means that the central feature of the crescent is no longer in middle.[1]
In July 1951 Number 1 Camden Crescent was the scene of an abduction when John Straffen took five-year-old Brenda Goddard and later killed her.[3]
