ABBEY GREEN (West side) No. 10 Crystal Palace Public House 12/06/50

GV II

Public house. c1820, altered late C20. MATERIALS: Rendered stonework, roof not visible from street. PLAN: Double depth plan, with modern conservatory extension to rear. EXTERIOR: Two storeys, five windows wide with three window centre and pedimented ends set slightly forward. Ground floor end windows in semicircular headed panels with impost blocks and bolection architraves over. Central doorway, now truncated, with pedimented hood on console brackets, panelled door with rectangular light over. All windows are six/six sashes in plain reveals. First floor sill band. Cornice over the centre section, which connects the two pediments. Coped parapet. Very tall stone stack to left rising to the ridge height of No. 9 Abbey Green (qv). There is a small extension of the main front at either end, that to the right being slightly wider. The building partly projects over the front of No. 2 Abbey Street (qv). Similar doorway to bar in return. INTERIOR: Much altered on ground floor with `Victorian character' bars and modern conservatory extension. Left-hand bar retains much C17 panelling, reputedly from the Three Tuns Inn that stood behind; also in situ is a late C18 cast iron fire grate with urn decoration. HISTORY: The site is alleged to have been developed from the late C17 onwards: a house is shown here on the site of `Higg's tenement' on Gilmore' map in 1694. The present public house dates (in establishment, if not fabric) from 1851, hence its name. It was originally a storey higher. SOURCES: E. Holland, 'The Kingston Estate within the walled City of Bath', (1992).
