Duke Street

Duke Street forms a walkable pathway connecting Grand Parade and South Parade, featuring traditional Georgian architecture with stone buildings along its length.

John Wood the Elder designed and constructed Duke Street in 1748 as part of an intended Royal Forum development project in Bath's growing urban center.

The street represents classical British urban planning with Grade I listed buildings that demonstrate the architectural preferences of 18th-century English society.

The street maintains a vehicle-free environment, allowing pedestrians to explore the various hotels, residences, and local establishments at their own pace.

Number 11 Duke Street contains original paint finishes beneath 19th-century internal linings, preserving authentic Georgian decorative elements from the 1740s.
