Norfolk Crescent, Georgian crescent in Bath, England

Norfolk Crescent features nineteen three-bay houses arranged in an arc with a radius of 420 feet, displaying classical Ionic pilasters across its central section.

Built between 1793 and 1822, the construction of Norfolk Crescent paused due to the Bath Bank financial crisis, which led to several builders declaring bankruptcy.

The five-story townhouses reflect the social patterns of Georgian Bath, when wealthy families sought residences combining architectural refinement with comfortable living spaces.

The structure includes numbers 1 to 7 converted into Cumberland House flats, while numbers 8 to 18 maintain their original consecutive arrangement.

A preserved watchman's hut stands in the corner of the formal gardens, receiving its own Grade II* listed status alongside the main building.
