Description
9 and 10 Springfield Place are a pair of houses built around 1820. They are constructed from limestone ashlar and feature moulded stacks on the party wall. The buildings are two storeys high with attics and basements, and they have a central three-bay block that is pedimented and originally flanked by symmetrical recessed entrance bays. The main block has a coped parapet that steps up at the corners and rises to form a pediment at the centre. The attic storey, which may have been added later, is set back and has windows in the returns where the parapet rises above them. There is a rich cornice and a lintel frieze that returns and stops at the attic windows.
The first floor features balconettes with six-over-six pane sash windows, while the ground floor has eight-over-eight pane sashes. The first floor windows have painted moulded architraves, and the windows on the party wall are blind but have real glazing bars. No. 9, on the left, has a set-back single-storey entrance block with a parapet and cornice similar to the left end of the main block. This entrance features a wide segmental arched overlight with a circular central pane, reeded architrave to double doors with circular panels, and painted over margin lights. A later two-storey lean-to block is present at the rear. There is a wrought iron overthrow attached to the railings in front of a modern glazed canopy over the porch.
No. 10 has a mid-19th century double-depth two-storey porch with a hipped concrete tile roof and stone bracketed eaves. It has a similar first floor window to the main block, moulded archivolts, and imposts to a semicircular arched opening at the front, along with paired arches and a recessed circle under a similar arch on the right return. There is also a moulded gatepier with railings. The interiors have not been inspected. This pair of houses is part of a distinctive Regency suburban development that reflects the influence of the Greek Revival on Bath's domestic architecture.
