GV II

Shop, with offices above. 1900-1901. By Silcock and Wreay. MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, Welsh slate roof partly visible from street. PLAN: Double depth plan with central entry to shop and left hand entry to offices. EXTERIOR: Three storeys and attic, five windows wide, one:three:one with outer bays set forward. Ground floor has arched doorways in outer bays framed by Ionic half columns, but right hand one has been converted to display window. To left recessed six-panel door with arched fanlight. Modern plate glass shopfront in centre. Entablature with deep cornice over, forming sill band for first floor windows. Twelve/twelve-sashes in moulded architraves, outer ones having pediments on console brackets. Three centre windows have continuous hoodmould and three windows above continuous sill band, between them foliage wreath. Second floor windows all twelve/twelve-sashes with moulded architraves. Heavy projecting modillion cornice, balustraded parapet with panels of balustrade above each window. Four vases above this. Rear elevation not seen. INTERIOR: Not inspected. HISTORY: This building was reconstructed for Mallet and Son in 1900-1901; Mallet and Son are in the 1901 Bath Directory at this address. Photographs of 1870 and 1900 in the Bath Chronicle show the previous building which was a four bay one and therefore significantly different from the standard Thomas Jelly design for the rest of the street. A photograph of the celebrations for Edward VII's Coronation in 1902 shows the present building with its original ground floor with two further Ionic half columns, though these have already disappeared by the time of George V's Coronation in 1911 (for Mallet and Son 1911 by J. Foster). SOURCES: (The Bath Chronicle: Images of Bath: Derby: 1994-: 26,119 AND 125; Finch G: Shopfront Record, Bath City Council: 1992-).
