No. 18 And Attached Railings

No. 18 is a house, now converted into flats, dating from around 1775, with a lease dated 1774. It was likely designed by Thomas Warr Atwood. The front is made of limestone ashlar, while the rear is not visible. The building features a double pile parapeted mansard roof, covered in Welsh slate at the front and concrete tile at the rear. There is a coped party wall with two ashlar stacks, some of which have early clay pots, positioned back-to-back with the stacks of No. 17 Bennett Street. A staircase is located at the rear.

The exterior consists of three storeys, an attic, and a basement, with a three-window front. The first floor has three nine-over-nine horned sash windows set in splayed ovolo moulded architraves, complete with friezes and cornices. These windows have lowered moulded stone sills on console brackets and are accompanied by wrought iron balconettes. To the right, there is a six-panel door featuring four fielded panels and a single glazed panel, framed in a cyma moulded architrave with a flat surround. Heavy moulded console brackets support a moulded cornice that forms a hood over the door. The pennant-paved crossover is flush with the pavement and includes a 19th-century cast iron footscraper. The basement has two six-over-six sash windows in plain reveals with stone sills, and a 20th-century door under the crossover. The limestone area steps have pennant inserts on the treads and a wrought iron handrail. There are one double and one single dormer, both with six-over-six horned sashes. The building features a band course above the ground floor, a modillion eaves cornice, and a coped parapet. The partially visible rear elevation includes a full-height canted bay with six-over-six sash windows on the second floor, as well as plate glass sashes in the double and single dormers.

The interior has not been inspected. The property also includes attached wrought iron railings and a gate with shaped heads on limestone bases. These houses were developed by The Corporation of Bath and Richard Atwood, designed by Thomas Warr Atwood, and built by Robert Wheeler.
