11, 12 and 13, Darlington Place

Nos. 11, 12, and 13 Darlington Place are a group of three early 19th-century terrace houses, with alterations made in the 20th century. They are constructed of limestone ashlar with slate roofs; the roof to the right-hand house is hipped and features moulded stacks on the party walls. The houses follow a double-depth plan.

The three houses present a continuous facade with a coped parapet and attic and second-floor cornices. Number 11 has a 20th-century porch on the right-hand side with a hipped roof. A balconette is above a six/six-pane sash window on the ground floor to the left. A coach house, formerly in the front garden, has a double-pitched roof, a coped parapet that sweeps up over the gable returns, and a coved cornice. It features an eight/eight-pane Tudor arched sash window with intersecting tracery, a similar window to the rear, and large double doors with a timber lintel. Number 12 has six/six-pane sash windows, and a two-storey porch on the right-hand side. The return to the left has windows on both floors: the first-floor ones have balconettes, and the ground-floor ones flank a six-panel door. Number 13 has balconettes to the attic windows, a coved cornice over the first floor, irregularly placed windows, and a six-panel door on the right.

The interior of Number 12 was recorded by the Bath Preservation Trust in 1997. It includes ground floor shutters and a door with a diamond pattern in each panel, repeated throughout the house. A balcony runs along the entire rear of the house. A lobby features two Gothic-style windows with small coloured glass inserts. A wall separating the basement and sitting room has been removed. There are remnants of an old dresser in a deep recess in the kitchen.

The houses were built as part of a development on the Bathwick Estate and were named after Henry Vane, 4th Earl of Darlington, who inherited the estate in 1808. The development was associated with John Pinch the Elder.
