Description

The Old Bath House is a former public bath house, later converted into a house, dating to 1924. It was likely designed for Percy Norley-Harder for the Francis Gyde trust. The building is constructed of squared coursed limestone with a stone slate roof and takes the form of an L-plan, with a single storey and attic.

The west front features a 2-light flush chamfer-mullion casement window, brought forward in the design. A small 2-light window is positioned above a recessed door protected by a peaked hood supported on brackets. A continuous mounted string course runs along the front, returning to the St Mary's Street facade. A small, louvred lancet window is set within the gable. The return side has a mix of 1 and 2-light openings, a door flanked by small windows, and a further door. Two 2-light casements, located under a hood mould, are found in the gable to the left. An ashlar stack with a moulded capping is situated to the right of the gable. The Tibbiwell front has a 2-light gabled dormer window and a stack to the left of the gable. Doors on the St Mary's Street frontage each have a cast iron footscraper. This building, now domestic, originally served as a public building, and retains an important visual presence at the corner. The detailing is successful Cotswold vernacular.
