GREAT PULTENEY STREET (South side) No.41A (Formerly Listed as: GREAT PULTENEY STREET (South side) No.41A. Nos 42-77 (consec)) 12/06/50
GV I
Twelve terrace houses, north-east terminal, on tapering peninsular site. Late C18 (1788-1793). By Thomas Baldwin, John Eveleigh and other architects. MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, double-pitched slate roof hipped to the left with moulded stacks to the coped right party wall. PLAN: Double depth plan. EXTERIOR: Three storeys, attic and basement, three-window range to three sides. Great Pulteney Street facade stepped forward and similar to those of Nos 42-52. Partly-returned parapet, cornice and lintel frieze, sill bands to first and second floors, ground floor platband over rusticated ground floor with radial voussoirs to flat arches, six/six-pane sash windows. Window to centre of first floor echoes that of No.40 opposite (qv), semicircular arched with radial glazing bars flanked by consoles to narrow pilasters supporting cornice and frieze with double festoon to centre and paterae to sides. Three windows to ground floor. Canted left return has moulded coping to parapet, cornice and lintel frieze, second and first floor sill bands and ground floor platband returned to rear facade in Sydney Place. Banded pilasters to ground floor, window to centre of first floor similar to that at front but with plain frieze. Enclosed porch, probably C19, has banded rustication, cornice, blocking course and triglyph frieze stepped forward and supported by engaged Tuscan columns, and eight-panel door glazed to top. Rear elevation has blind windows to right hand range. INTERIOR: Not inspected to basement areas. HISTORY: Great Pulteney Street forms the principal element of the late C18 development of the Bathwick estate east of the River Avon. Laid out on an unusually generous scale, 100ft wide, it is one of the most imposing urban set-pieces of its day in Britain. Robert Adam prepared designs in 1782, but Thomas Baldwin was responsible for the eventual design. Leases were granted from 1788 but progress was delayed as a result of the building crash of the mid-1790s. This terrace may be part of the later phase. SOURCES: (Ison W: The Georgian Buildings of Bath: Bath: 1980-: 164).
