Listing

Grade II* 'A palace-fronted terrace, 300 ft in length and imposingly raised on low podium with central obelisks. This is a Neoclassical version of the north front of Queen Square, but executed in Eveleigh's characteristically refined manner. It takes full advantage of the sloping site, and its monumentality is accentuated by the triangular opening to Burlington Street in front. The large central house was built for one P.C. Crespigny; other houses were built for Cross, banker of Bath.'
