Many old Bath buildings have windows that were never glazed thanks to the window tax of the 17th and 18th centuries, although the option was open to wealthier owners. Here an unglazed window has been painted in a contemporary style illustrating what the building may have look like in times gone by.
A well-worn ghost sign above declares George Gregory’s bookshop to be ‘well stocked with all the latest fiction’.
