Grosvenor House is a terrace of 42 houses (numbered 1 to 41), with double curves to the large central house.
Number 23, which was formerly the Grosvenor Hotel until the 1970s, has large Ionic half columns on the 1st and 2nd floors.[1] It then became affordable The Guinness Partnership flats.[3] In 2020 ownership returned to Bath and North East Somerset Council, who will convert it to supported accommodation for former rough sleepers.[4]
Grosvenor Lodge and Grosvenor Villa are two houses at the end of the south side which were built slightly later.[2]
