Description

Frankley House comprises a terrace of twelve houses built between 1800 and 1820, with 20th-century alterations. The houses are stepped steeply uphill from No. 1 to No. 12. They are constructed of painted limestone ashlar with double-pitched slate and double Roman tile roofs, featuring moulded stacks to the party walls. The houses have double-depth plans, with rear additions.

The houses are two and three storeys high, with one and two-window ranges. No. 1, at the lower end, has a right return in Tyning Lane and is three storeys with a two-window range. It features a parapet, a coved cornice, and a ground floor platband. It has bracketed sills to late 19th-century plate glass windows, a six-panel door in a shallow stone porch with reeded details to the hood and jambs, and stop-chamfered arises to architraves. No. 2 is similar with two-pane plate glass sash windows. No. 3 is similar, with nine-pane windows to the second floor and plate glass to the rest. No. 4 is similar to No. 2, with early 20th-century leaded lights to the door. No. 5 is similar, with six/six-pane sash windows and a 20th-century door. No. 6 is similar, with panelled blocks to the corners of the pedimented parapet and slightly larger six/six-pane sash windows. No. 7 is similar to Nos. 1-5, with plate glass sashes. Nos. 8-11 are one-window ranges with cornices below low parapets, ground floor platbands, and eight/eight-pane sash windows, except No. 11, which has margin panes to plate glass sashes. Porches are similar to those of Nos. 1-5, except for No. 9. No. 12, with a left return on Camden Road, dates to around 1850. It has wide eaves, bracketed sills to plate glass sashes, and a 20th-century door. The left return is two storeys high with two windows and a four-panel bolection moulded door with a cornice on large consoles. Two blind windows are located on the first floor to the right.

The interiors were not inspected, except for No. 8, which was partially inspected by Bath Council in 1980. Some original sash windows remain at the rear, along with an original hall archway.
