LONG ACRE
17/10/06 No.3
GV II
An early C19 townhouse converted in 1910 by the architect M.A.Green to become part of the Bath Technical Institute. MATERIALS: The house is built of painted limestone ashlar and has a rubble stone right return. Its double pitched slate mansard roof, partly replaced and partly covered in tiles, has a central dormer window and moulded stacks to the right return. PLAN: The three-storey building with attic has a double depth plan. EXTERIOR: Its south front, with coped parapet, cornice, second floor sill band and ground floor plat band, has two six x six pane sash windows of diminishing proportion to the upper floors including the attic - with those on the ground floor having been replaced with C20 glazing. To the left of these is a six pane front door with an over-light with margin panes. INTERIOR: Internal features include C19 carpentry including doors, surrounds, cupboards and skirting boards, and a series of early C19 decorative fire surrounds in marble and wood. HISTORY: During the later C19, this townhouse of circa 1820, formed part of Veysey's Coach Factory. In 1910, it was converted by the architect M.A. Green to become part of the Bath Technical Institute. SOURCE(S): Michael Forsyth, Bath (2003), Pevsner Architectural Guides. pg 231 SUMMARY OF IMPORTANCE: No.3 Long Acre in Bath, is a good example of a substantially intact early C19 townhouse. Its architectural style is plain but well mannered and the building contains good quality early C19 internal features. The house also makes a positive contribution to the historic interest of the series of historic buildings, of both local and national importance, situated along this main approach road to Bath. As such the building fully merits designation at a national level.
