Description

656-1/0/0

No.6 (Formerly Listed as: HENRIETTA ROAD No.6 Henrietta Villas)
05/08/75

GV II

Detached house. c1840.
MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, shallow pitched hipped slate roof with shaped brackets to wide eaves and moulded stacks to returns that rise through eaves.
PLAN: Double depth plan.
EXTERIOR: Two storeys, symmetrical three-window range. Moulded architraves to six/six-pane sash windows, returned first floor sill band with consoles to sills, cornices on consoles to ground floor, enclosed porch with blocking course, cornice and fine guttae string to frieze, steps up to four-panel door and overlight.
INTERIOR: Not inspected.
HISTORY: The road lies along the route of the old footpath connecting Bath and Bathwick. Originally this area was earmarked for a major development called Frances Square (marked on Chantry¿s plan of 1793, and on Donne¿s plan of 1810). After a substantial delay this suburban development, greatly reduced in density, was proceeded with in a characteristic Late Georgian manner. The villas are shown on Cotterell¿s 1851 plan of Bath, and are recorded as being "newly erected" in the Bath Guide for 1853. A print of 1844 (reproduced in Pound) shows a row of three similar villas which are probably Nos 3-6.
SOURCES: (Pound C: Genius of Bath-The City and its Landscape: Bath: 1986-: 68).
