    Bath Press - A distinguished address with a story to tell. Sir Isaac Pitman, famed for inventing the world’s most widely used shorthand system, had a revolutionary influence on the communication and education of the English language.

    The 5.3 acre Bath Press site was once home to Pitman's Fifth Phonetic Institute and then the Pitman Press, later becoming The Bath Press, the city's largest employer.

Local information

  • A new home in a heritage setting gives buyers the best of both worlds – you can enjoy everything the city has to offer, while also benefiting from modern design, low maintenance and energy efficiency.
  • Homes at Bath Press are a part of a distinguished address with a story to tell. The site of what was once the Pitman Press Printing Works now offers a selection of beautifully crafted townhouses and apartments, blending heritage with modern living.
