GV II

Shown on OS map as Widcombe Wharf House. Offices and workshop, formerly house, probably connected with stone trade from Ralph Allen's quarries, as early maps show a wharf near here. Early to mid C18, but much modified, and with C20 alterations. MATERIALS: Rendered stonework, pantile roofs, possibly over earlier stone slates (previous list). EXTERIOR: Small two storey house set gable to street, with long single storey service wing adjacent to road, to right, at slight angle, two storey hipped workshop. Main range has three plain sashes in splayed surrounds, with inserted narrow light, above plain sashes flanking central door. Heavy plain mid-band, cut or broken through above doorway, coped gables, plain to left, and with stack to right, and stone modillion eaves cornice. Long wing, also with pantile roof, includes large C20 display window with door. Workshop block has pyramidal hipped roof above full width range of four C19 plank doors with glazed top panels above similar but later doors to ground floor. Right end stopped to brick gable wall. INTERIOR: Not inspected, but the former list refers to room with domed ceiling. HISTORY: Formerly connected with stone trade from Ralph Allen's quarries: early maps show a wharf near here. Despite alterations, this building retains its interest and can still be recognised as an earlier house, and has historical interest through association with Allen¿s development of the C18 stone trade. Its modillion cornice and other details are in the Palladian tradition employed by Wood. SOURCES: Bath Archaeological Trust/RCHM England: Georgian Bath Historical Map (1989).
