Lansdown Grove Hotel

The Lansdown Grove Hotel is a house built in 1770, which was enlarged into a hotel around 1860, altered in 1913, and converted as part of Bath High School in 1995. It is constructed of limestone ashlar and features a hipped slate roof with moulded stacks on the front slope and three pedimented dormers in the center.

The building has a double depth plan and stands four storeys tall, including an attic storey. The front is symmetrical with eleven windows, which includes two three-window canted bays. The windows are horned plate glass sash types. The outer canted bays extend full height and have panelled parapets and cornices, with the cornices continuing as an eaves cornice across the central section. There are second-floor cornices on the bays and a lower modillion cornice at the center, along with a first-floor cornice that spans the entire building.

The three central ranges are slightly set forward and feature a pediment with the name 'LANSDOWN GROVE HOTEL' in raised letters. The windows have flat-arched recesses, and there is a projecting porch, likely from 1913, which has a 20th-century door in a moulded architrave, flanked by clasping Ionic pilasters that support a pulvinated frieze and pediment. The first floors of the bays have two-over-two pane sash windows, and there is a French window in the right-hand bay.

To the right, there is a single-storey wing from 1913, which has a three-quarter circular room. This wing features a balustraded panelled parapet over the curved section, with Ionic pilasters framing the windows in moulded architraves with keystones and curved plate glass panes. A terrace to the right has four Tuscan pilasters and 20th-century glazing. Set back on a high slope is a further late 19th-century block, which is not of architectural or historic interest. The interior has not been inspected.
