Description
No. 7, Bathwick Hill is a detached villa dating to around 1825. It is constructed of painted limestone ashlar with a shallow, single-pitched hipped slate roof, featuring paired brackets and moulded stacks to the returns. The building has a double-depth plan.
The exterior is notable for its symmetrical three-window facade. An eaves band and a first-floor sill band run around the building. It contains six/six pane sash windows with chamfered architraves, some retaining crown glass. Tall semicircular arched recesses are found on either side of the ground floor windows, framing what was formerly a Tuscan doorcase. A late 19th-century single-storey enclosed porch now fronts the entrance, with moulded coping to the parapet and a cornice over double, three-panel doors. Blind windows are present on the right return. The rear elevation has a two-window range, with cast iron balconettes to French windows, which cut through the sill band—likely a 20th-century addition.
The interior of the property has not been inspected.
A stone front wall with a wrought iron overthrow sits above gatepiers with vermiculated rustication.
The villa is a fine example of late Georgian architecture, reflecting the upward development of Bathwick Hill. The date is derived from a conveyance from the estate of the Earl of Pulteney. The design likely involved the architect John Pinch the Elder.
