Bath : Royal Crescent
Look at the 'snuffer' (the con shapped thing on the fence). It was used to put off the candle before a cab sent someone home. At those times, the cab in Bath was some sort of a similar version of the Chinese carriage (I don't know what you call it in English, but it is called a 'tandu' in Malay). The cab will send the person all the way into his room.
Apparently this really beautiful crescent shaped 'row' of houses had some sort of covenant requiring all of them to have either white,black or brown coloured doors. These houses were designed by John Wood (the younger).
