  Location of Duke Street in Somerset | |
Duke Street in Bath, Somerset, England was built in 1748 by John Wood, the Elder. Several of the buildings have been designated as Grade I listed buildings. [1] [2] The street, which overlooks the River Avon, is pedestrianised with no vehicles permitted to enter.
Duke Street was part of a wider scheme to build a Royal Forum, including South Parade, Pierrepont Street and North Parade, similar to Queen Square, which was never completed. Wood designed the facade, of Bath stone, after which a variety of builders completed the work with different interiors and rear elevations. Many of the buildings are now hotels whilst some remain as private residences. [3]
Numbers 1 and 2, including number 13 North Parade, are known as the Georgian House, and numbers 3, 4 and 5 form part of the Southbourne Hotel. [1]
The last house, number 11, adjoins North Parade House, number 12A North Parade.
