Description

7 and 8 Henrietta Villas are a pair of houses built around 1840, with some alterations made in the late 19th century. They are constructed from limestone ashlar and feature a shallow pitched hipped slate roof with wide eaves and a long double stack at the center of the party wall. The houses have a double depth plan, wider at the rear, and include rear extensions.

The exterior is three storeys high with a semi-basement and has a symmetrical three-window arrangement, which includes blind windows on the party wall. The plate glass sash windows have painted reveals and a returned sill band on the second floor. The lower floors feature splayed moulded architraves, with those on the ground floor having cornices on consoles above a returned platband. There are parapets and cornices on the single-storey enclosed porches at the rear of the returns. No. 7 has a later 19th-century bolection moulded four-panel door with an overlight in a glazed porch that has a swept roof, while No. 8 has a single-storey porch and a four-panel door.

The interiors have not been inspected. Historically, the road follows an old footpath that connected Bath and Bathwick. This area was initially planned for a major development called Frances Square, as indicated on maps from 1793 and 1810. After delays, the suburban development was carried out in a typical Late Georgian style, and the villas are shown on Cotterell's 1851 plan of Bath, noted as "newly erected" in the Bath Guide for 1853.
