Description: | The Guildhall, situated in the High Street, was built between 1766 and 1775 by Thomas Baldwin. The west front had five bays, a pedimented portico and a rusticated ground floor. As can be seen in the print, the parapet is decorated by stone vases, with a figure of Justice is perched on the top of the pediment. Behind the Guildhall buildings are the markets. New wings and a saucer-shaped dome were added by JM Brydon in 1891. Bath Abbey church can be seen in the background. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Sanders, John | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
