Benchmark on the archway
A fine cutmark (as listed in the Benchmark Database http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm40834 ) on an unusual feature. Hungerford Road appears a normal Edwardian terrace in Bath, but halfway along it is this small arch and side door. See

Peeling archway
The inclusion of an otherwise unconnected arch and door among the houses in a typical Edwardian terrace seems rather odd. Despite that, its many paint layers are now becoming in danger of crumbling. A benchmark has been cut into the stonework; see http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm40834 for the Benchmark Database, and
