The south side of this rectangular square which has roads entering diagonally at each corner. Pevsner observes that it is "the most complete Georgian square in Bath", which is surprising until one remembers that Bath's most notable set pieces are crescents or terraces (or the Circus). Bowed ends, a pilastered and pedimented centrepiece, and accompanying arched windows. By John Palmer, 1790-93. Grade I listed.
