Summary
A public house built in 1890 (dated by plaque, now worn), to a design by WA Unsworth.
Reasons for Designation
* Architectural interest: the building is constructed in an Arts and Crafts Cotswold Vernacular style, which appears only rarely in the context of building in Bath;
* Group value: with its former coach house (now Wessex Court) to the rear, also listed at Grade II.
History
The public house was originally known as the Weston Inn, to which name it has reverted, having previously been called The Sportsman and prior to that the Weston Hotel. It is a well-designed building in the Arts and Crafts Cotswold style, which here makes an unusual appearance in Bath.
Details

The attic has a gable over the porch with coping and a ball finial, a three-light window in the gable, a hipped dormer with a three-light wooden casement, a wider gable to the right with a single-light window, all under a steeply-pitched roof with three tall ashlar stacks, with weathering.
