Nos.8-11 (Consec)

(Formerly Listed as: LONDON ROAD (South side) Nos.7A and 8-11 (consec) Walcot Buildings) 05/08/75 II

Four terrace houses with shops. Late C18 or early C19 with C20 alterations. MATERIALS: Painted limestone ashlar, roofs and stacks unseen except No.8 to right that has slate roof hipped to left. PLAN: Double depth plans. EXTERIOR: Low two storey fronts with two windows per first floor above shop fronts. Coped parapets and cornices, No.8 is slightly higher, with a hipped roof; Nos.9-11 are continuous. No.8 has large recessed panel between the upper windows. Nos.8 and 9 are one shop with plate glass sash windows over C20 shopfront. No.10 has six/six-pane sash windows to first floor mid/late C19 projecting shopfront with fluted scroll consoles flanking fascia and machicolated type cornice. Shop window to left, flanked by panelled pilasters, has two rows of three plate glass panes with semi-elliptical heads and sunk spandrels. To right panelled soffit over two set back doors. Half glazed shop door has similar head to those of windows, one panel to base and overlight. Door to far right has one glazed horizontal panel over two semicircular arched vertical panels. No.11 has six/six-pane sash windows to first floor, plate glass shop window of 1888 with moulded sill, panelled pilasters, dentil cornice to fascia and set back half-glazed door with moulded panel to base and overlight to right. To far right raised and fielded six-panel door plain chamfered opening below part of ground floor platband. INTERIORS: Not inspected. HISTORY: These houses interrupt the procession of the otherwise complete terrace originally called Albemarle Buildings: It is shown on Harcourt Masters's plan of Bath, 1793. They may represent a later and lower infill to the otherwise complete terrace; alternatively, their much-reduced shells might have been necessitated by the financial crisis of 1793-94.
