We have recently completed a large and prestigious project on Lansdown in Bath for Nimbus Conservation. The ‘Pleasure gardens’ are located immediately west of Lansdown Crescent and form the focal point for Somerset Place, a grand sweep of elegant Georgian houses. The central houses in Somerset Place were once part of Bath College. They were recently privately acquired from Bath City Council and are being fully renovated prior to being sold as residences in this highly desirable corner of Bath.

Ironart were commissioned to restore and reinstate 40 metres of pre-existing railings, and to supply and fit a new 110m run of railings set into the stone copings that Nimbus had restored and partially replaced. The Somerset Place project incorporates two gates (one single, one double). The railings are topped with traditional ‘Bath’ style finials, rivetted stays and are entirely traditionally made.

What these sun-blessed pictures do not convey is the freezing cold temperatures, the sleet, the frost and the North wind that battered the Ironart team the entire time that they were up on Lansdown fitting these beautiful railings!!
