Regency Crescent, Fairmile
This imposing development consists of several crescent-shaped apartment blocks, seemingly inspired by the Royal Crescent at Bath. This block is interesting in having the entrance doors at first-floor level, with garages at ground level. The development is on land formerly occupied by the Victorian hospital nurses' home, which was demolished, against the wishes of local historians and conservationists.
