Description
No. 6 and attached railings is a house, dating to approximately 1777-1784, with 19th and 20th-century alterations. It was designed by John Wood the Younger. The front of the house is constructed from limestone ashlar, while the rear features a mix of ashlar and rubble. It has a double-pile, parapeted mansard roof, raised in later years to incorporate additional rooms within the roof space. The roof is covered in Welsh slate, with a coped party wall and two ashlar stacks to the right, the stack at the front being rebuilt.
The house is three storeys high, with an attic, basement, and further rooms in the roof, presenting a three-window facade. The first floor has three plate glass sash windows with horns, set within splayed, ovolo moulded architraves, friezes, and cornices, with lowered moulded stone sills resting on console brackets. The second floor mirrors this design with three six-pane sashes in similar architraves and stone sills. The ground floor has two plate glass sash windows with horns in splayed reveals and stone sills, alongside a six-panel door with flush, fielded, and glazed panels, set within a deep stone doorcase featuring a cyma moulded architrave and moulded cornice on console brackets to form a hood. A pennant paved crossover sits flush with the pavement. Basement windows consist of two six-pane sashes in plain reveals with stone sills, partially infilled beneath the crossover with ashlar and concrete blockwork, with modern area steps. There is one double and one single dormer window with six-pane sashes. The rear elevation includes an oriel bay to the first floor, featuring four/six, six/nine, and four/six pane sashes, as well as an ashlar and rendered extension above the staircase to the second half landing, incorporating 19th and 20th-century casement windows. A reconstituted Bath stone extension extends from the ground floor.
The interior, inspected by Bath Council in 1973, features a white marble fireplace with moulded brackets, wooden stairs with three balusters per tread, and a particularly ornate fireplace on the second floor. The attached wrought iron railings and gate have shaped heads on painted bases.
