And of course incredibly important that this continues, as I'd like to think all involved are aware. <br /><br />INterestingly, I am less anxious when I think about the interior as more emphasis is put on its listing and awareness of it increases.<br /><br />My concerns have now shifted to how barmen in uniform and a bar weighted in favour of Thornbridge brews will pan out. The Bath, Tuesday, looks like an ideal day after payday spot for a pint.wee beefyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16922755344809968104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-87120916463415542.post-75891532874153584112012-04-28T16:30:56.679+01:002012-04-28T16:30:56.679+01:00Here's the listing for the building.

Any features mentioned within this are intrinsically part of the listing and changes to these will be resisted by heritage officers (and ergo the planners):<br /><br />----------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />DBH<br /><br />SK 3487 SE SHEFFIELD VICTORIA STREET 784-1/23/10063 Nos.66-68, Bath Hotel II Public house with dwelling over. Part of a terrace of houses of c.1868, remodelled and extended 1931. Painted tilework and narrow red bricks below, red brick above. Welsh slate roof. PLAN. Acute-angled corner site. Central servery to two bars and, formerly, off-sales area. EXTERIOR. 3 storey, 3-bay elevation to Victoria Street and the angle between the two streets, reducing to 2 storeys at rear. 3 glazing bar sash windows below wedge lintels, 6 over 6 panes to each of the 2 upper storeys to Victoria Street, one to each of the 2 upper storeys at the angle. Below white and green tiled but painted. Original leaded windows with some ornamental glass and the words 'Bath Hotel' on the angle. Above this, in raised lettering, 'The Bath Hotel' set within a painted panel. Tall eaves stack to Covent Walk elevation. Toilet block of 1931 along Covent Walk. INTERIOR. Timber entrance vestibule to bar which retains fixed seating with upholstered seats and tongue-and-grooved backs. Low glazed screen between the 2 main areas of seating. Original bar counter with brown tiled front and leading glazing over. Smoke room with upholstered fixed seating. Hatch to serving area. Original internal doors with ornamental leadwork. Original black and white floor tiling in corridor. HISTORY: Until the early C20 served as both a grocers and beerhouse and consisted only of the northerly part (i.e. in the angle of the streets). The first recorded use of the name 'Bath Hotel' was in 1908 but the premises were still recorded as a grocers in 1911. In 1920 Ind Coope bought it and in 1931 remodelled the premises and incorporated the house next door. An unusually complete example of a Sheffield corner public house, which retains in almost complete form the plan form and fittings of 1931. Sources: research for Joshua Tetley & Co by C. M. Scargill, displayed in the bar.<br /><br />---------------------------------------------------------------Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-87120916463415542.post-72624627300622583452012-04-28T14:47:10.849+01:002012-04-28T14:47:10.849+01:00Yeah,sorry Steve, Brian was hurried off to another...Yeah,sorry Steve, Brian was hurried off to another throng so hadn't chance to pass on your best wishes, and can't see me getting in again before he goes.<br /><br />Will be in next week however.....wee beefyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16922755344809968104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-87120916463415542.post-32951573038822362092012-04-28T14:44:58.237+01:002012-04-28T14:44:58.237+01:00Sad, I'll miss seeing Brian on my next visit t...Sad, I'll miss seeing Brian on my next visit to Sheffield, please pass on my best wishes if you see him again.
