Walcot is a suburb of the city of Bath, England. It lies to the north-north-east of the city centre, and is an electoral ward of the city.

The parish church of St Swithin, on The Paragon was built in 1779-90 by John Palmer.[2] 18th century poet Christopher Anstey is buried at the church.[3][4]

Walcot was the birthplace of Richard Debaufre Guyon, who would become, in succession, an Austrian officer, a Hungarian rebel and an Ottoman Pasha.[5][6]
