[5101] Bath : 8 Great Pulteney Street
8 Great Pulteney Street, Bath, 1789-95.
One of 12 terrace houses.
By Thomas Baldwin (c1750-1820), John Eveleigh and others.
Grade l listed.
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.
