PIERREPONT PLACE 656-1/41/1254 Nos.3, 4 AND 5 11/08/72

GV II

Houses. c1740-50. Possibly by John Wood the Elder or Thomas Jelly, see below. MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, painted on ground floor, roofs not visible. PLAN: Nos 2 and 5 are double depth plan, No.2 has rear wing, No.3 has no rear elevation, but triangular single depth plan, presumably with staircase in back angle. EXTERIOR: Three storeys, presumably with attics but visible only to No.3, cellars, basement to No.5. Platband at first floor level, cornice, parapet, all carried round three houses built on L-shape with three-bays to Pierrepont Place and six-bays to Old Orchard Street. Frontages generally similar to that of No.2. Two windows to No.3, and three windows to Nos 4 and 5, paired to No.3. Ground floor of No.3 has small paned C19 shop window six x four. Six-panel door, Tuscan surround with pediment. To right No.4 has single six/four-sash on ground floor and blind panel on floors above. All other windows six/six-sashes. Nos 4 and 5 have plain architraves, first floor windows of No.5 have cornice heads. No.4 has central doorway with four-panel door with rectangular light over and hood on brackets. No.5 has doorway as 3, wrought iron area railings. Stacks with pots. Rear elevation of No.3 rubble, and shows six/six-sash windows and small paned dormer. INTERIORS: Not inspected. HISTORY: This development seems to differ from the general appearance of houses designed by Wood for his development of the Duke of Kingston¿s estate, and may not be by him. They have similarities with Wood's work, but also with the Thomas Jelly designs to North Parade Buildings of c1754. SOURCES: Mowl T and Earnshaw B: John Wood Architect of Obsession: Bath: 1988-: 135-147.
