Description

No. 3 is a house, now divided into flats, built between 1777 and 1784 with 19th and 20th century alterations. It was designed by John Wood the Younger. The front is made of limestone ashlar, while the rear features a mix of ashlar and rubble. The building has a double pile parapeted mansard roof covered with Welsh slate, and there is a coped party wall to the right with two ashlar stacks topped with some early clay pots shared with No. 2 Catharine Place.

The house has three storeys, an attic, and a basement, with a three-window range. On the first floor, there are three plate glass horned sash windows set in splayed ovolo moulded architraves, complete with friezes, cornices, and lowered moulded stone sills resting on console brackets. The second floor features three plate glass horned sash windows in ovolo moulded architraves with stone sills. The ground floor has two plate glass horned sash windows in splayed reveals with stone sills on the right, and on the left, there is a six-panel door with fielded panels and a single glazed panel. This door has a cast iron lion's mask knocker and is framed by a stone doorcase with a cyma moulded architrave and a moulded stone cornice on console brackets that forms a hood. The crossover is pennant paved and includes a wrought iron footscraper that is flush with the pavement. The basement has two six-over-six sash windows in plain reveals with stone sills, and the crossover is partially infilled with ashlar, featuring a 20th century door and glazed screen, along with 20th century area steps. There is a double dormer with plate glass sashes, a band course over the ground floor, a modillion eaves cornice, and a coped parapet. A lead hopperhead and downpipe to the right are shared with No. 2 Catharine Place.

The rear elevation includes two-over-two and plate glass sashes, and there is a parapeted ashlar extension off the staircase leading to the second half landing, along with a further single storey extension. The interior was partially inspected by Bath Council in 1979, revealing many original features, though nothing particularly outstanding. The property also has attached wrought iron railings and a gate with shaped heads on limestone bases.
