Gay Street in Bath, Somerset, England, links Queen Square to The Circus. It was designed by John Wood, the Elder in 1735 and completed by his son John Wood, the Younger. Much of the road has been designated as Grade I listed buildings. The houses are of 3 storeys with Mansard roofs, with many also having Ionic columns. There are slight variations in window design but they work together to provide a consistent streetscape. Many of the houses are now used as offices. Numbers 2 to 17 are on the west side. Hester Thrale, who was also known as Mrs Piozzi, lived at number 8, with its 4 Corinthian pilasters on the ground and 1st floors in 1781. Number 18 to 30 are on the east side of the road. It was built before the west side. Number 41 is on the corner between Gay Street and Queen Square. It was the home of John Wood, the Younger. Numbers 31 to 40 have been designated as Grade II.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Images of England )〕 The Jane Austen Centre is at number 40, although Jane Austen actually lived at number 25. ==Gallery== File:41 Gay Street.jpg|41 Gay Street, Bath * List of Grade I listed buildings in Bath and North East Somerset 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gay Street, Bath」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
