Position Statements

Bath Preservation Trust has released several supplementary position statements and guidance notes regarding certain types of development within Bath. We offer advice on how changes can be managed to best sustain Bath’s special character as a conservation area and World Heritage Site, as well as protecting its high number of significant listed buildings.

  • The Cleaning of Bath Stone – Advice produced in partnership with B&NES about best practice when cleaning Bath stone.
  • Vaults in Bath – BPT’s position statement on the conversion and damp proofing of Bath’s historic vaults and basements.
  • Signs, Banners, Adverts and Awnings in Bath – BPT’s guidance on the vernacular shop front and signage character of the conservation area, and recommendations for new shop fronts and alterations to existing.
  • Recommendations for Architecture & Design in Bath – Five recommendations for architecture and design developed by BPT in collaboration with our Architecture, Planning, and Place Committee.
