1-3 James Street West comprises the regeneration of the former Labour Exchange. The building, which bears very visible scars from the Bath blitz in 1942, was most recently home to local charity, Genesis Trust, which will be relocated to a new premises on Walcot Street as part of the redevelopment plans.


The Exchange, Bath, is an impressive mixed-use scheme on James Street West, offering 78 student rooms for mostly post-graduate and international students. With three accommodation floors above a commercial space on the ground floor, the project involved working within strict planning guidelines as it is set within and above the former listed Labour Exchange.
