Description

A townhouse built around 1830 for Dr. Fry, now divided into three separate houses. The building is constructed of Bath limestone ashlar, with coursed rubble limestone to parts, ashlar chimneys, and a replacement tile roof. It is two storeys high, with a linking section that connects it to the adjacent buildings. The building is irregular in shape, particularly to the side and rear, and features a long, two-storey rear wing.

The front (west) elevation has a fenestration pattern of 1:1:1, with a central section that projects forward. The ground floor windows are tripartite sashes recessed beneath segmental arches; each has a central 12-pane sash flanked by 4-pane sashes, with sunblind valancing. A 9-pane sash in the central recess may have originally been a doorway and has a panelled architrave with a moulded cornice. The upper floor has 12-pane sashes. A moulded eaves cornice and plain blocking course run along the top of the facade. The linking section to the right has been altered; it now features a 20th-century casement window above a 12-pane sash.

The north elevation is irregular, with a doorway to the right featuring an entablature supported by attached Tuscan columns and a six-panel glazed door. Above the door is a 12-pane sash, and a centrally positioned eaves-mounted chimney. To the left, the elevation projects, featuring a plain band at the upper floor level and a projecting chimney stack. The rear elevation has a large, rectangular single-storey stone panelled bay window with iron railings to a balcony; an upper floor tripartite sash provides access to the balcony. The long wing has 16-pane sashes with plain architraves. All roofs are hipped and low-pitched.

The interior has not been inspected, but panelled shutters are visible to the principal sashes. The property occupies a prominent corner position.
