Longview, Granville Road, Lansdown, Bath Available From Prospect House Longview, Granville Road, Lansdown, Bath Available from August 2016 CHARLCOMBE HOMES The Development Longview is located on the edge of the Lansdown escarpment, with sweeping panoramic views to the South East across the Swainswick and Box valleys, and beyond. This high quality development follows Longview the same concept as the award winning adjacent Lansdown Ridge, and the newly completed Crownhill and Oakdene Developments nearby, and consists of SOLD SOLD fi ve large and well appointed detached family homes on the Northern edge of the World Heritage City of Bath, adjoining Green Belt and the Cotswold area of outstanding natural beauty. SOLD The location is perfect for commuters using the M4, families with children at nearby schools, or simply Prospect House buyers who would like the rare convenience of a new house in this World Heritage City. With easy SOLD access to the city centre by public transport and open Granville Road countryside on the doorstep, purchasers will enjoy the best of both worlds. The site slopes from west to east, and this has been used to create a small development of characterful and individual houses. Lansdown Ridge Four out of fi ve of the houses have been sold o - plan through word of mouth or via our website. Now CHARLCOMBE just the fl agship plot 2, Prospect House, remains. HOMES This represents the last opportunity to purchase a www.charlcombehomes.co.uk Charlcombe Homes House on this ridge overlooking the Greenbelt and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Prospect House This house is designed very much in a contemporary architectural style. It has generous open plan living spaces with extensive glazing leading out to the elevated deck, and laid out over three storeys to gain maximum possible benefi t from the panoramic outlook. The entrance is approached via the driveway, shared with plot 1, through electrically operated hardwood gates into an enclosed courtyard allowing parking for several cars. The three-storey layout, like the completed Landown Ridge houses immediately next to the site, means that the house addresses the courtyard with a more imposing two storey façade. The double garage is generously sized and entered through wider than normal electrically operated doors. The entrance hall rises to the full height, creating a dramatic space overlooked by the gallery. This upper level allows the master bedroom suite the very best of the outlook over the countryside through the almost completely glazed east wall. The en-suite bathroom has space for a separate shower and double basins, and there is plenty of hanging space in the separate walk in wardrobe/dressing room. This level also houses the guest bedroom with its en-suite bathroom. The middle entrance level is the main living fl oor and the utility, cloakroom and coats cupboard are accessed o the hall, as is the “snug” sitting room (which could be a playroom or media room). The main feature is straight through past the lower stair where as the door is opened, the uninterrupted views open up through the living/dining/kitchen space and beyond the deck. This “L” shaped space is over 34ft long and 24ft wide into the kitchen recess. High level windows face the evening sun, and there is a fuel e cient jetmaster fi re with tiled surround to act as focal point. The lower fl oor is given over to the three family bedrooms (one also en-suite) and a large study. All of these rooms face east too, thus also being ideally orientated for both morning sun and the outlook. Externally, the back garden is accessed directly from the deck above, with patio and lawn orientated to receive sun most of the day. Being right next to, and above, the fi eld the garden has an elevated rural feel with equally uninterrupted views out over the Green Belt.

  • English Heritage Battlefield Report: Lansdown 1643
    English Heritage Battlefield Report: Lansdown 1643 Lansdown Hill (5 July 1643) Parish: Cold Ashton, Doynton, Bitton, Charlcombe, North Stoke Districts: Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire County: Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire Grid Ref:ST 723712 Historical Context In the early summer of 1643 the Royalist position in England gave rise to a certain optimism. Parliamentarian morale had been dented by a series of Royalist successes which included Adwalton Moor, Hopton Heath, Ripple Field, Stratton and Chalgrove. Moreover, Oxford was still reasonably secure. In the West, however, Parliamentarian garrisons continued to hold out in Devon, while Gloucester, Bristol and Bath were firmly controlled by Parliament. Sir William Waller, as Major General of the Western Association Forces, commanded Parliament's not inconsiderable military resources in Shropshire, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Somerset. If there was to be a chance of Sir Ralph Hopton's Royalist army marching east to join the King's Oxford army in a combined advance on London, Parliament's position in the West must first be destroyed. Hopton's victory at Stratton in May 1643 and his subsequent progress through Devon encouraged the King to send him additional troops under Prince Maurice and the Marquis of Hertford. At Chard on 4 June Hopton's reinforced army totalled some 4,000 foot, 2,000 horse and 300 dragoons, together with 16 pieces of artillery. An ingenious command system was now evolved to encompass the dignity, rank and military skills of Maurice, Hertford and Hopton. While Hertford commanded in name, Hopton commanded in the field and Maurice devoted his attention to the Horse.

  • Ensleigh, Bath
    Appendix 1: Ensleigh, Bath Location 1.1 The potential development site at Ensleigh is situated to the north of Bath city centre on the Lansdown plateau (see Figure A1.1). The site is adjacent to the former MOD site at Ensleigh and northeast of Lansdown Road. Figure A1.1: Ensleigh Proposed Development Site Location Plan Planning Context 1.2 The site comprises the Royal High School playing field, a flat, rectilinear sports field of approximately 4.1 hectares. The Core Strategy consultation document identifies the site for residential-led mixed use development of around 120 dwellings in the plan period, although the housing figure given relates to a larger site which includes the adjacent field to the west. This study considers the Royal High School playing field only. 1.3 To the east and south of the field lies the MoD Ensleigh site which began decommissioning in September 2012. To the west and north lie further school sports pitches. 1.4 The surrounding area is predominantly open countryside, with areas of woodland and dense vegetation on the hillside to the northeast, and small clusters of farm and residential buildings. Lansdown cemetery and Beckford’s Tower, a Grade I listed structure and local landmark, are situated on the other side of Lansdown Road, to the southwest of the site. 1.5 Photographs A1.1 and A1.2 show views across the site from the northeast, looking southwest. Beckford’s Tower can be seen above the trees in the centre of the frame with the low-rise buildings of the former MOD site to the left.

  • THE BATH REGION from Late Prehistory to the Middle Ages Mick
    THE BATH REGION from Late Prehistory to the Middle Ages Mick Aston Introduction This essay is concerned with a city in its region over a long period. Bath is a good example to study, for two reasons. Firstly, the city itself and the region around have been well examined by anti­ quarians over several centuries - very many sites have been located from late prehistoric to medieval times. Much of the early landscape also remains in the form of earthworks and abandoned field systems. Secondly, Bath itself has been occupied for a long, but reasonably certain· length of time. Unlike most towns and cities, something is known of the origins of the place and how and why it developed. Its close relationship with its hinterland over two millennia has, however, not been studied and that is the aim of this essay. The Physical Background Bath lies at the southern end of the Cotswolds, on the river Avon and 30km inland from the Severn estuary. The surrounding region is very 'unEnglish' in terms of its scenery. The city lies in a deep valley with steep slopes all around, rising to almost level flat-topped plateaux at Lansdown (to the north-west), Charmy Down (to the north-east), Bathampton, Claverton and Combe Downs (to the east and south-east), and Odd Down and Southdown (to the south and south-west). There is little flat land in the stream and river valleys in the Bath region, except at Bath itself and around Bathford and Bathampton. The sides of the valleys are steep, with deep combes everywhere.
