INTERIOR: Not inspected. This house is apparently one of the four houses built by John Wood soon after 1728, and is shown projecting forward from the building line in his plan in `Essay towards the Description of Bath', 1749. It was refronted in the late C18; its original appearance presumably had three windows to the front as it still has at the back. The building appears on the Plan for the City of Bath, 1735.
