It was from this house, using a telescope of his own design that William Herschel discovered the planet Uranus in 1781.
.
Number 19 New King Street forms part of a terrace and is by Bath standards a modest town-house.

It was built around 1764 and probably designed by one of the city's less celebrated architects Strachan., and follows a fairly standard layout over five floors.

200 years after the historic discovery of Uranus, the house was restored and inaugurated as a museum. It was restored again in 2000 and today is a Grade II listed building.
